Good morning, dear friend and hello from Merton Abbey Mills in Southwest London. I’m walking on the most beautiful day in the world and inviting you to take part in Series 55 on Courage. The series starts next Monday, 10th of March. In this episode, I’ve recorded four journal prompts for you. If you do some free writing as part of your artistic practice, why not use these prompts to inspire you to write something about courage. You might want to share them when we start the series next Monday. Take care of your beautiful mind, yourselves, and each other, and I’ll speak to you then.

Creatives and artists often worry that they are stealing other people’s work. But today on Walk the Pod, I want to talk about inspiration and theft. To make the point that sometimes it’s necessary to steal with impunity to start with, until one find one’s own voice. Walking in local woods for Episode 4, Series 54 of Walk the Pod.
