About The Creative Independent (Daily)
TCI is 'Wisdom for the Work'. Its daily newsletter delivers interviews that focus on *how* things are made rather than just *what* was made. It features everyone from Björk to obscure indie poets sharing their struggles and breakthroughs. It also provides 'Guides' on topics like 'How to deal with fame' or 'How to write a grant'.
What Makes This Newsletter Unique
