ResouRces & community
BuilD a CReative PRactice that LAsts.
Community. Tools. Conversations. Support. This is how you stay in the game—and level up.
High-performing creativity is a marathon, not a sprint. It's a lifestyle and a calling, and it can't be purchased with any one product, or instantly downloaded into your brain, MATRIX-style. (Though that would be awesome.)
You've heard of "Death by a thousand cuts"? Well, thriving creativity is more like "Success by a thousand tiny adjustments". There is no one big fix–it's more like learning to parkour your way through a never-ending series of traps, lava pits, and fireballs.
Whether you're working on a novel, building a world, or just trying to stay unstuck, there's no need to go it alone. Having a community of driven creatives around you can help immensely with accountability, problem-solving, and learning in real time.
We're introducing a series of new ways to engage with Reckless Deck, to help you stay creative, stay inspired, and find your fellow travelers.

Here's a fun and insightful quiz that takes a direct look at your creative process: how you work, what fuels your creativity–and what might be keeping you blocked.
This isn’t just a personality quiz with cute answers. It's a quick-but-deep dive into how you create. Whether you’re a writer, artist, worldbuilder, or GM, this quiz opens the door to smarter, more intentional creative choices.
In just nine questions, you'll get:
• A snapshot of the genres and formats you gravitate toward
• Insights into how you work best
• Clarity around the biggest obstacle that's likely slowing you down.
Think of it as a mirror for your creativity—minus the judgment and sharp edges. Take two minutes and use it to explore, recalibrate, and get resources designed just for you.

Did you know we do livestreams?
Twice a month on Tuesday evenings, I team up with a professional creative guest for Story on the Spot – a live YouTube show where we dive into their career and process, and then co-create something brand-new using prompts from the PSYCHE character and story decks.
Together, we build a compelling character and narrative in real time—breaking down the creative decisions as we go. Each episode is a bite-sized masterclass in creativity, storytelling, and navigating a professional creative career.
Past guests include:
• Greg Manchess – master illustrator and author of Above the Timberline
• Melinda M. Snodgrass – NY Times Bestselling Author, co-creator of Wild Cards with George R.R. Martin, and writer on Star Trek: The Next Generation
• Zuzanna Szadkowski – stage actor, playwright, and Dorota from the CW's Gossip Girl
