501 - How To Create Gentle Habits with Sophie Yanow

Creative Pep Talk

How do you develop discipline as an artist?

Can you hack your behavior and form creative habits?

What tips or tricks could help you to create more often AND more confidently?


In this episode I'm joined by Eisner Award winning cartoonist Sophie Yanow. Sophie has so much insight on this topic and found great value in creating what she calls a 'Gentle Comics Habit'. We talk starting, stacking and bundling habits and what it all achieved.
