My Amazing Mess

My Amazing Mess is a podcast hosted by actor and producer Laura Allen and singer/songwriter and actor Liv Austen. In this episode we talk to Jess Ruston, who is a writer in every sense of the word! A published author many times over and now successful screenwriter on shows like Harlots and Young Wallander, Jess shares lots of fantastic insight in to how you work as a writer and how you get people interested in you and your work. She also shares the challenge of going back in to work after having her daughter, especially as this coincided with her move to screenwriting. You don't want to miss this one.

My Amazing Mess is a podcast hosted by actor and producer Laura Allen and singer/songwriter and actor Liv Austen. Every Friday we release our Messy Musings, where we discuss different aspects of being a self employed creative. As we approach the last episode of season 1 of My Amazing Mess, we talk about what "taking a break" means for creatives and self employed people, how we often don't rest because we feel guilty or pressured in to working non stop, and how we've found that it's often when we are off the clock that things start to make the most sense. Have a little coffee break and sit down with us for this one!
