The Trail Journal
A personal note for each Writing Woods video.
In a weekly letter, I share what I learned while filming, why the topic matters to me, and the thoughts that felt a little too personal or unfinished for the episode.
Behind the video
What I was thinking about while researching, writing, or filming the week’s episode.
Why it matters to me
The personal experiences, questions, and convictions underneath the ideas I talk about publicly.
From the woods
Updates, recommended resources, and early looks at what I’m working on for writers.
The heart of the video
The video is for everyone. The Trail Journal is for us.
I learn a lot while working through ideas for Writing Woods episodes. Every step of the process reveals something new. When the video is finished, I turn to the Trail Journal to work out why this video was important, how it changed me, and what I can't stop thinking about when the camera is off.
