The latest Frankenstein movie caused me to reflect on the relationship that we (as creators) have with our creations…. which is complicated, to say the least. generatemagic.substack.com/p/loving-the-monster-yo…

In writing (and in life), beginnings rarely make a grand entrance. You know, where the clouds part and the angels sing. Perhaps in some cases, but usually they arrive quietly. So quietly, in fact, that we may overlook or dismiss them.

And maybe that’s the point.

What matters isn’t how impressive the seed looks at the start, but whether you give it room to grow. When you stop trying to force a theme and let the story simply begin, it has a chance to surprise you. Not all at once, but gradually, quietly, the way the best things tend to do.

What started as a piece on endings in stories and what happens after the last page (or the credits roll) became a reflection on the “happily ever after”s we script for our own lives. It goes like this: "When I [get the dream job/spouse/house], then I can finally feel [peace/joy/fulfillment]." But is the "story" ever really over? generatemagic.substack.com/p/what-happens-after-th…

Ever had a dream that wouldn’t let go of you? Mine started with a picture on a catalog cover — a barefoot writer in a hammock. I didn’t think much of it at the time, but that single image ended up shaping my life.

The path there was anything but a straight line, though. I wrote about the full journey — and what it taught me about the dreams we keep circling back to. generatemagic.substack.com/p/the-vision-that-never…

I started writing this in response to a trend I kept seeing in spiritual circles that rubbed me the wrong way—this "whatever happens is fine with me" energy. Like you're supposed to transcend wanting anything. Be above it all. Float through life with zero investment in outcomes.

But the piece shifted as I wrote it. I started remembering times when pursuing goals felt excruciating. Losing the spelling bee would wreck me. Choking at the district tennis championship felt like death.

But it had nothing to do with the desire itself or even caring about the outcome. It was the link I'd made in my mind: "When I achieve X, then I can finally accept myself." Or let's be real—"then I can stop despising myself so much."

Feeding that if-then monster becomes a never-ending loop.

That's what we actually need to detach from. generatemagic.substack.com/p/youre-allowed-to-want…

My latest Substack article took me a while.

There were moments I wanted to scrap it altogether. So many sentences felt wrong, forced, incomplete. But somehow, I kept circling back.

And that circling became the piece.

Because that’s what the whole thing is really about: the trying. How sometimes the struggle to express something is the very process that expands your capacity to see it.

It’s easy to think the divine only shows up in pristine moments — the meditation retreats, the sunsets, the states of clarity. But it’s just as present in the mess of creation.

This applies to everything we build, pursue, or long to bring into form. Every failed attempt, every false start, every time we think we’re getting it “wrong” is really life stretching us wider.

There are infinite ways to access that intelligence. Infinite doorways. None more sacred than the others.

That’s what I tried to capture in this piece. You can read it here: generatemagic.substack.com/p/finding-god-in-a-k-ho…

So much of this journey is a loop — revelation, forgetting, remembering. We call it “progress,” but it’s really a dance. And for me, writing has always been the rhythm that brings me back when I lose the beat.

When I write, I’m not trying to fix my reality; I’m translating the invisible into language. Turning confusion into clarity, fear into perspective, forgetting into remembering.

This article was born from that moment when you realize the nightmare was never real. But even when that moment passes and the nightmare returns, you can always turn on the light again. You can remember that who you truly are — the dreamer — remains untouched by all of it.

Rinse and repeat as often as necessary. It doesn’t matter how far gone you believe you are. Every NOW moment is a clean slate. God will accept you with open arms because God’s love for you is unconditional. generatemagic.substack.com/p/you-were-never-trappe…
