Episode notes

In this chapter, the speakers discuss the connection between writing and emotions. They explore how writing can convey poignant emotions and evoke emotional experiences for the reader. They also delve into the concept of rumination and its influence on the writing process.

How do you create intimacy and connection with readers?

While some writers have a way of letting you inside their mind, Ava (@noampomsky) has a way of letting you inside her heart. There's an intimacy about her writing - an honesty, a tenderness, a contemplative-ness, a sense of connection that shows up in her work and it's what makes her unique.

Ava sees writing as a distinct form of consciousness. This process of continually excavating your mind to find out what you think and then eventually you realize that you have so much more to say on this topic than you ever originally realized.

Ava Huang's story is a treasure trove of insights, of moments that make you pause and think, "Wow, writing is so much more than just words on a page." It's about the heart, the soul, and the contemplative journey that we all take.
