I just wrote my first book.

Title: Love Songs and Suicide

Subtitle: A Travel Memoir,
Romance, and Tragic
Musical Comedy

Nobody’s read it so far.

That’s okay.

I haven’t promoted it at all, really.

But that’s about to change.

I just purchased a domain.

At lovesong (dot) blog, I’ll talk about overcoming tragedy and finding harmony in a chaotic world, exploring topics such as mental health, business, music, and travel.

It’s a self-improvement website (for screwed up people).

I’ve been adrift since I finished the book.

But through trial and error, I’ve discovered the cure for a creative hangover.

It isn’t….

❌ Booze
❌ Medication
❌ Or therapy

Yeah, I tried all of those things.

They didn’t work. I’m still in therapy though (an overshare, perhaps).

The cure for a creative hangover is…

✅ A new project.
✅ Something that matters to you, ideally.
✅ That’s it.

Wishing you “sobriety” in all your endeavors, creative and otherwise.

CTA – I have 35 connections as of now. And no one’s likely to see this post. But by some miracle you did. So if you’re not a serial killer, the MyPillow guy, or associated with the mayonnaise industry in any capacity (I believe mayonnaise should be illegal), feel free to connect with me.

P.S. I actually have more than 35 contacts now. I drafted this post a few months ago, but just now worked up the courage to post it. That’s a lousy P.S. Sorry Jasmin (shameless shout out). I’ve learned a lot from stalking your LinkedIn content despite never commenting on it. Thanks much. And even though I hate your “clear over clever” rule, it does make sense to me and 🍻to everyone on this paycheck Friday and that’s all for now.
