TPW 022: Josh Spilker on Experimental Fiction

In this episode, Ryan interviews writer, artist, and creative Josh Spilker. Josh is not satisfied with writing fiction inside the typical literary box. He wants to push the bounds of writing and explore new ways to tell stories. His latest book Taco Jehovah is an example of this experimental style and pushing the bounds of storytelling. During this episode we explore the common wisdom of writing and publishing and why it's not always helpful. Josh explains his background in writing and why he's drawn to outside the box writers. And, we discuss much, much, more. Be encouraged, inspired, and helped in this episode! You can find Josh at http://joshspilker.com/

The Art of Paying Attention
The Art of Paying Attention
What do you pay attention to? How do I determine what's worthy of my limited attention? It’s the questions every human asks at some point, and the questions we MUST ask, to thrive in this one precious life.
And it’s these types of questions (and more), we want to wrestle with on The Art of Paying Attention.
We believe the work of paying attention is not optional, and something we all must learn to do well. The poet Mary Oliver said, "To pay attention, this is our endless and proper work.”
Every week, we'll consider this endless, and proper work, of paying attention. What do we see? What are we learning? WHAT or WHO needs MORE attention? Join writer, creator, teacher, and accidental entrepreneur, Ryan J. Pelton, as he explores with others, the essential Art of Paying Attention.
Most episodes feature an interview with a bonafide "attention-collector" working in the arenas of creativity, art, music, writing, publishing, entrepreneurship/business, and spirituality. Join in the conversation and learn to see with new eyes a world bursting with hints of hope. Often in the most unlikely places.
