Divergent Creatives: The Book

Divergent Creatives is for the writers, artists and makers who feel out of step with the world—and with the expectations placed on creativity itself. For the neurodivergent creatives, those who are disabled or living with physical or mental health challenges, those who have caring responsibilities, and those whose lives simply don't fit into neat boxes.

You think your issue is consistency, or productivity, or commitment, or talent... but it isn't. Your issue is that you've been trying to follow someone else's blueprint. A blueprint that wasn't designed for you.

Instead of the usual productivity advice aimed at neurotypical people with an abundance of time and energy, Divergent Creatives shows you how to forge your own path, designing a creative practice around your personal needs and lifestyle.

The stories of a society shape its cultural narrative, which determines... everything. In our current world, too many voices are silenced, too many perspectives are hidden. If we are going to build a better future, we need to hear from a wider variety of people.

Divergent Creatives exists to empower you to share your story. 

In the course, I walk you, step by step, through practical ways to release limiting beliefs, understand your brain and build a creative practice that meets your unique needs.

In the book, we'll take it back a step. I want you to put down the book having learned:

• You are not the problem, the system is
• Why and how the current model has held so many of us back
• What needs to change
• What is within our control to change
• That we need your work in the world - yes, you; especially you
• Why you deserve to create in whatever way works for you
• How you can begin to redesign your creative practice to suit your needs

You will be able to get your hands on a copy in May, but I would love you to pre-order.

This book is being independently published, so pre-orders support me to actually do the work and not starve to death before I finish it. So, seriously, thank you! 

What's more, there are tonnes of extra goodies you can bag when you pre-order!
