#DIY

The Manifesto for Creators, Rebels, and DreamersI’m here to tell you what no one else will: you don’t need anyone’s permission to create, to build, or to be exactly who you are. Gatekeepers? Screw them. This is your world, and it’s time you took it back.DIY is for anyone who’s tired of waiting for a seat at the table. It’s for the rebels, the misfits, the creators who don’t fit into neat little boxes. It’s a guide to embracing independence, owning your creativity, and taking charge of your destiny.What DIY Will Teach You• How to Create Without Permission: Stop waiting for validation. The tools are in your hands right now.• Why Mistakes Matter: The only way to learn is by doing—and failing. DIY shows you how to embrace failure and grow from it.• The Punk Rock Spirit of Independence: Whether it’s building a startup, launching an album, or writing your first book, you’ll learn how to do it your way.• Reject the Rules: Define success on your terms, not someone else’s.Highlights from the Book• “Get in the Van” Mentality: Take the leap. Start now.• Reclaiming the Hustle: Balance ambition with sustainability to avoid burnout.• The Hard Truth About Working for Yourself: It’s not freedom—it’s the next best thing.• Overcoming Fear of Failure: Learn how to fail better and fail forward.Who Should Read DIY?This book is for you if:• You’re a creative tired of rejection letters and gatekeepers.• You’ve got a brilliant idea but feel stuck waiting for permission to pursue it.• You’re ready to embrace discomfort, take risks, and own your journey.• You’ve failed before and want to know how to turn that failure into fuel.Why I Wrote This BookI’ve fought for my place as a writer, entrepreneur, and creative. I’ve pitched to silence, lived on ramen, and built a life that’s completely mine—without gatekeepers. DIY is everything I’ve learned along the way, written to help you shortcut years of waiting, worrying, and wondering if you’re good enough.You are good enough. And you don’t need anyone to tell you that.Ready to Do it Yourself?

Kill the myth. Keep the truth.

Every myth starts with a kernel of truth. That’s the seed. We gather facts, line them up into a story, and pass that story along. And every time it’s told, it shifts a little. Facts blur, intentions twist, and somewhere along the way, the story is no longer a collection of facts. It’s become a myth. A myth about a founder with a vision...

It could be argued that, in a weird way, 1984 is a sequel to Animal Farm.

Happy Halloween.
