THE RAVENOUS HUNGER| THE CREATIVE PREY
the creative hunger, the force of passionate making
raven, verb
i"m thinking about the hunger that is beneath the hunger. I’m talking less about food and more about the notion of the food beneath food — that is, what drives the hunger itself? Emptiness? Or rather, fullness?

THE STRATEGY OF A STORY
THE STRATEGY OF A STORY,
THAT’S AN OLD STORY,
THAT’S A NEW STORY, RETOLD.
Why do you carry a story, that is another story (even brand story) that becomes your story — brought forward?
What does the listener hold? If there’s a scent – a perfume – could that story be an old story, that transforms to a new story?

Tumble
I was thinking about the right ideas, that come from the tumble of those that try, but fail. Those that stumble, and find. These that jumble and arrive at the new.

Those that own the brands, own the story to hold the brand — and in offering that, carry forward their own story.
