Important announcement about Methods and Madness

Please read this

Still life with wild strawberries, Adriaen Coorte, 1705.

Hi there,

There will be no end of month Methods and Madness this month.

Instead you will be hit by a veritable avalanche of content in October and then a rejuvenated Methods and Madness after that. Read on for more information…

What’s happening in October?

For the month of October, I am suspending business as usual for Methods and Madness. Instead, every day from the 1-30 October I will be sending out a thought-provoking quotation inspired by the Inner Development Goals. We’re all living in interesting times right now; I wanted to do something uplifting.

I hope you enjoy them. And on the 31 October…

Join me for this free event:

Creative conversation: The Inner Development Goals. Explore the IDGs via a series of inspirational and imaginative prompts. Online, 31 October, 8am-9am AEDT / 5-6pm EDT OR 6-7pm AEDT / 8-9am CET. Book HERE.

After that some changes are coming:

After October I will be making some changes to what and when I am posting on the Methods and Madness Substack. The good news is that you will be getting a little more content.

Starting in November, I will be posting a creative prompt, reflection, or resource every second Friday. These will be accessible to everyone – free and paid subscribers alike.

When I started these Substack posts, back in November 2021, I intended for them to be short and sweet but frequent. I wanted to give busy people who don’t have much time some short and sweet creative snippets to mull over. I think that posting something short every fortnight is getting back to that original intention.

But do you want to do some reading?

Then become a paid subscriber. You guys will be getting a post every other Friday. This will be an excerpt from one of my publications – a longer (but not too long) bit of writing on creativity for you to enjoy. I have been busy writing over the last couple of years and I have heaps of stuff to share.

Clear as mud?

Here’s an example as to how this new content / scheduling regime will work:

For the first 4 Fridays after 31 October this is what will happen:

• Friday 3 November – everyone receives a creative prompt.

• Friday 10 November – paid subscribers get something lovely to read.

• Friday 17 November – everyone receives a creative prompt.

• Friday 24 November – paid subscribers get something wonderful to read.

And so on and so forth.

I hope you enjoy this new way of doing things. The way I see it, you all get a little bit extra and I get some people to read all of this stuff I’ve been writing.

Enjoy the creative quotes that are coming your way throughout October!
