If you’re trying to reify fears and fantasies in a story in a way that somebody else would care about it, you’re going to have to interact with those fears and fantasies at a certain point in a very cold-blooded way that an artist has to do.
Ever thought about using your wildest ideas and deepest fears to create something beautiful? Author James Kennedy joins host Stacy Curtis on 'Real Life Resilience' to show you how. Known for his quirky and creative mind, Kennedy dives into the power of storytelling and how it can be a tool for both art and therapy. He shares his journey with the 90-Second Newbery Film Festival, where kids turn Newbery-winning books into zany 90-second films.
It's a celebration of creativity that pushes boundaries and embraces the weird and wonderful. Kennedy also talks about his book, 'The Order of Odd Fish', which features a villain inspired by a real-life prankster. The conversation isn't just about writing; it's about harnessing your fears and fantasies to fuel your creativity. Curtis and Kennedy discuss practical tips for getting started with writing, finding your unique voice, and turning everyday pressures into artistic gold.
They emphasize the importance of daily practice and the therapeutic benefits of storytelling. Whether you're an aspiring writer or someone looking to process life's challenges through art, this episode offers valuable insights and inspiration. Tune in and discover how to transform your life story into a masterpiece.
