Writing is a balance of forces, the pull of intellect versus emotion, technique versus intuition. I’m Davin Malasarn. In the Artist’s Statement, we talk to writers about how they navigate those dynamics to create their work. What happens between that initial inspiration and the final, published piece? And, how do you find that spark in the first place?

Join me as we talk with some of today’s most exciting writers. We’ll look across genres, identities, and cultures in search of those common threads at the heart of creativity, as well as what makes every artist unique.
