Episode Notes:

Gird yourself for a conversation on the power of creative community. While such a community may take time to cultivate, know there are many ways to do it and it's worth the wait. Whether through friendly, professional competition, sharing creative experiences or plain old "merc talk" (you'll see, we promise), creative communities often provide the inspiration that helps a creative practice thrive.

And, hey, thanks for being part of our community, we're glad to have you!
