Episode description

In this episode, Melissa and Elora talk through what happens when you find yourself in a transitory space? For Melissa, creativity is a journey. You'll hear about her process of creation, and the gateway she discovered in 2020 by making art out of images she saw in her dreams. There's also a snippet from one of her poems that turned out to be prophetic in more ways than one.

Other talking points: 

  • The significance of the term release for book launches
  • How Elora's writing of Every Shattered Thing was a necessary excavation
  • How there is nourishment found in the cave 
  • The truth of creativity being how our body moves through things
  • Allowing creativity to lead you
