Welcome to Emerging Form!
A show about creative process.
It’s a new year, and we are now a radio show as well as a podcast. You can hear us on KVNF radio every other Tuesday from 6:30 to 7pm.
You can also listen to the podcast for free on your favorite podcast app, or you can help us continue making the show by signing up as a paid member. In addition to helping us out, you’ll get bonus content, including a bonus episode every other week.
Sign up now, to get the discount and new content every Thursday.
If you sign up for the paid newsletter, you’ll also be able to comment on episodes in our substack feed, and take part in discussions here.
I am a brand new subscriber and just saw your invitation to share a neologism. One of the neologisms I am most proud of, and here I unabashedly presume to have made it up, is the word rodential. It is the word I use for my own mind, or some people would say "ego", when it flips into an insatiable scrambling and demanding for something it thinks its life depends on. It sounds like the mice in my walls, pointy little claws scratching and tapping up and down the mysterious tubes of all that interior plumbing in my brain. It happens more often than I want to admit, and so much less often than it once did that I fall on my knees in gratitude!
