We’ve all taken on new adventures and challenges in our writing, and we’ve learned a lot over the past year. Committing to the vision of the Story Studio has meant channeling our energy into producing fiction in ways that are unprecedented for Sterling and Stone. Today, we’re doing a quick check-in on our progress towards being a story-first company. We Talk About: Dave’s shift from an unhealthy to a healthy lifestyle and writing habits, and how he’s coping with a messy socio-political landscape. Johnny recapturing his mojo, writing a solo project, and how he’s using the company’s talent to keep his momentum. Sean’s re-immersion into first-draft fiction writing, and the one method keeping him grinding words like a boss. — You’re invited to join us at the final Smarter Artist Summit on February 18th and 19th in Austin, TX.
