episode one




The focus of this episode is breaking in to the field of creative work. We’ll discuss the early days when school is done and work isn’t yet lined up. How do you find your own creative voice?  How do you hold down a day job and get your own project up and running?

GUESTS

Walter Scott



Walter Scott is an interdisciplinary artist working in writing, video, performance and sculpture. In 2011, Walter started Wendy, a comic book series that follows a young woman who wants to be a famous artist. Throughout the series, Wendy is constantly derailed by the everyday distractions of punk music, parties, and boys.  We talked to Walter just before the release of his new book, Wendy’s Adventures.
