Summary

Sometimes the adventure chooses the hero and other times it’s the other way around! Both are valid. The only trouble? Most of us have a default that we get stuck in, it’s helpful to recognize when we need to switch things up. In this episode a classic flying-by-the-seat-of-his-pantser (Zac) and goal oriented plotter (Andy) sit down and compare notes. If you don’t know Zac - he is a phenomenal creator. He won an Emmy for his work on the celebrated mini-series “Over the Garden Wall” on Cartoon Network. Zac has also written several books, many issues of the Rick and Morty comic series, as well as many other incredibly inspiring illustration works!
