A lot of people who educate about "content creation" talk about the benefits of niching down...and I think it probably is a great strategy. However, right now, I'm feeling compelled to niche *out* and share a more holistic type of creativity. Also-- I think the Moth and Rust blog and brand might be ready for a (slight!) refresh...today I'm chatting about where my mind is right now, so I hope you'll hang out with me for a bit!
