The Last Station Scripted Podcast: Listen Now!

It’s here! Visit TheLastStationPodcast.com to listen to the scripted podcast I wrote and produced about the last radio host at the end of the world who gets her first caller and realizes she’s not alone. It’s a sci-fi mystery series and I can’t wait for you to experience it.

If you want to support the show, listen, subscribe, and review on Apple podcasts and consider supporting us on Patreon for cool perks!

Find Freedom in Freelancing

Hi friends! Not sure if you heard, but I wrote a book about how freelancing allowed me to travel the world and focus on my writing full-time in-between writers’ rooms. If you’d like to read about how I made my first $30,000 on the freelance platform Upwork while I was still an assistant and how I’ve grown my freelance business since then, check it out on Amazon!

Because I’m a Millennial

The nature of my work — as a ghostwriter, screen

The nature of my work — as a ghostwriter, screenwriter, and in my work for kingdomofpavement — is that I get to have fascinating conversations all week with people who have stunning stories. When I was a kid, I remember carrying my Mom’s tape recorder to an interview back when she was a journalist, and being completely immersed in listening to her subject talk about his life and work. Ever since, I’ve loved becoming a chameleon of sorts, and helping my clients connect with a deeper understanding of how their stories can impact the world. Because that’s what we so desperately need: impactful stories that challenge and change us. I’m incredibly lucky to be working for people I believe in, and to be lending my craft to help tell stories all over the world in order to create a better one ✨

I’m here to learn, to support, to listen. To do better and to help hold our systems accountable for the racism it perpetuates. I promise to help support the fight for a people’s budget here in LA, to be better at getting involved in a way that’s necessary. Silence and inaction act as permission to let things remain as they are.

"For those of you who are tired of reading about racism, trust me when I say this — I’m tired of writing about it," writes our columnist lzgranderson . "I’m tired of our humanity slowly being bled out from micro-aggressive encounters slicing at our collective psyche. Social media may give the impression that incidents like the Central Park encounter between avid birdwatcher Christian Cooper and Amy Cooper — the woman who put his life in danger by falsely telling police he was threatening her life — are recent developments, but they are not. It’s just that 14-year-old Emmett Till didn’t have a smartphone back in 1955, when he was lynched after Carolyn Bryant falsely claimed he made a pass a her." Read more via our link in bio.

It’s interviews like these that make the world a bit brighter— I feel so lucky to have spent the last year interviewing and learning from incredible creatives like Ocean who root their art so firmly in a place of authenticity.

A big part of my process as a writer is note-cardi

A big part of my process as a writer is note-carding (and wine!). As the full first season of thelaststationpodcast comes into focus, this entire wall will be covered in color-coded notecards with plot points, character arcs, ideas from our awesome team and others who have been so generous in sharing their notes and ideas, and random bits of dialog that may or may not make it into the show 🙂 also pictured: non-spoilery bits and pieces from the “random ideas” side of the wall with contributions from vandercallispan and theauthorlife. I’ve been spending the last week writing episode 2 and reading books on odd subjects and researching weird sounds before I hand off the reigns to the next writer in our team and step back to the macro again. For tonight though, there’s some bones of the back half of the season that need some thought so our set-ups get paid off and those pay-offs feel earned. Also: more wine and weird sound searching.

It’s been a rough month, but grateful for every day of it. The miles and miles of solitude are both a gift and a reminder: a reminder of what I love, what I miss, and what I yet still must work on in myself and in my immediate world. I’ve been buried in my work, mostly because I want to carve something beautiful for you in the story we’re telling at thelaststationpodcast, and in all of the other incredible projects I’m working on for clients and with collaborators. Just like everything I write, I want you to feel something when you experience it. I want my stories to challenge you or change you — or maybe just bring a small amount of joy into your corner of existence. Thank you to those who have kept in touch (which I am not great at) and also to those still figuring out what all this is. No matter what, I hope you are able to find what you’re looking for. Whether that’s peace or rest or a good book, I want that for you. Stay healthy ❤️

I’m assembling reading lists of my favorite book

I’m assembling reading lists of my favorite books on different topics, but one that really struck a chord so far is “Essentialism” by Greg McKeon that _daveda_ recommended to me. If you can relate to being frazzled and feeling like you’re constantly doing all the things — this book is a great reminder that you’re hurting both your quality of life and quality of your work by constantly stretching yourself too thin. It’s something I’ve had to learn: to stop using busyness as a status symbol or indicator of importance, and, in fact — to not be busy at all. Instead, I’ve been lucky enough to learn how to scale my freelance work in a way that actually affords me more time to read, write, and work on projects like thelaststationpodcast. I’m doing more — and am no longer constantly busy! — because I learned how to prioritize, get paid what I’m worth, delegate and hire a team with certain types of projects, and to instead favor large stretches of open calendar space instead of back-to-back meetings/zoom calls. I’m still learning, of course, and there are still days where I need to move things around and last minute projects take over my day, but I’ve found that I’m happier doing less so instead I can make the most of each and every thing I do. It’s okay to experiment and try different things to see what sticks/what works, but eventually finding focus (or finding help!) is how we pave the way to what’s next.

My roommate might be getting tired of me, but hopi

My roommate might be getting tired of me, but hoping she won’t kill me in my sleep before I finish the huge stack of books I got from thelastbookstorela’s curated book bundle program. So far, the things that have helped me the most in quarantine are: 1) putting on real clothes for video chats, 2) finding small ways to support local businesses instead of just buying things like books from amazon, 3) creating new things with people I love, & 4) taking time away from my screens to sit outside and drink a glass of wine or take a virtual yoga class. Since this is more or less our reality for the next year or until a vaccine is developed, I’m trying to find ways to adapt and stay flexible both in my storytelling projects like thelaststationpodcast and in my freelance writing work. Sending my love to you and your family and furry friends ❤️

thelaststationpodcast is about a radio host at the end of the world who thinks she’s all alone, broadcasting to what she fears may be a post-apocalyptic desert of nothingness. Every broadcast, she shares great music you’ve never heard of (and, she presumes, probably never will) and then leaves the phone line open for callers. No one has ever called in. Until now.

View from my office/porch today with some fresh succulents (& we’re going to teach you some cool ways to paint these pots & care for succulents soon on an upcoming kingdomofpavement livestream so go make sure you’re subscribed/following!) while working on rewriting episode 1 and sketching out episode outlines for thelaststationpodcast. My coping mechanism right now is to just keep on keeping on and dive into all the work. Slowing down isn’t my strong suit, but trying to do some of that, too.

Loving these rainy days spent writing thelaststati

Loving these rainy days spent writing thelaststationpodcast & zoom-ing with lovely new people ✨ I wrote a blog on working from home on my website (AmySuto.com), check it out if you need some help setting up a calming work environment. It’s a little surreal, as I generally work from home and almost everything feels normal as I maintain my schedule of creating and chatting with clients, collaborators & friends. But yesterday was the first time I wore a mask while venturing outside, and it felt like I was in some sort of post-apocalyptic costume, and it was odd to see people passing me on the street wearing bandanas and scarves and masks of all different colors and shapes. What a strange mass social experiment we’re all in. Hope you’re staying dry 🌧

I’m trying to look on the ☀️ bright ☀️ s

I’m trying to look on the ☀️ bright ☀️ side lately: even as we collectively mourn all that’s been lost, I’m trying my best to shift to the things I’ve gained. Time to slow down and luxuriate in reading good books and basking in warm sunlight when it visits my window. Time to finally immerse myself in writing thelaststationpodcast, which I’ve been developing for the past two years and now get to make with incredibly talented people I adore. Time to connect & reconnect with those I care about. Time to be okay — and time to not be okay, too. I’m here if you need to chat, share something’s that been on your mind, or work through a problem. I’m as worried and stressed and anxious as you are, and we’ll all get through this together ❤️

Making a habit of afternoon tea on the patio while

Making a habit of afternoon tea on the patio while I do some daily journaling and work on my novel (almost at 40,000 words!) Sunshine and make believe have been key staples for staying sane lately. Today’s cup: rose hip + spearmint loose leaf from onetea.co where I got this lovely handmade tumbler. Cynthia’s teas are amazing and she’s got some really unique blends! #shopsmall & support your local businesses, one cup at a time 🍵

In the quiet of isolation, what speaks to you? I’ve been considering a lot of thoughts, lately: wondering how can we create dangerously, live ethically, and survive sustainably. “Sustainable” isn’t just in reference to being eco-friendly (but yes, that too) but also in regards to how we expend energy as creatives. How can we work and live without teetering on the edge of burnout? What foundations need to be built to facilitate a happy life? Can we stroll slowly through the garden of productivity rather than sprint through it?

I’m trying to look on the ☀️ bright ☀️ side lately: even as we collectively mourn all that’s been lost, I’m trying my best to shift to the things I’ve gained. Time to slow down and luxuriate in reading good books and basking in warm sunlight when it visits my window. Time to finally immerse myself in writing thelaststationpodcast, which I’ve been developing for the past two years and now get to make with incredibly talented people I adore. Time to connect & reconnect with those I care about. Time to be okay — and time to not be okay, too. I’m here if you need to chat, share something’s that been on your mind, or work through a problem. I’m as worried and stressed and anxious as you are, and we’ll all get through this together ❤️

Making a habit of afternoon tea on the patio while

Making a habit of afternoon tea on the patio while I do some daily journaling and work on my novel (almost at 40,000 words!) Sunshine and make believe have been key staples for staying sane lately. Today’s cup: rose hip + spearmint loose leaf from onetea.co where I got this lovely handmade tumbler. Cynthia’s teas are amazing and she’s got some really unique blends! #shopsmall & support your local businesses, one cup at a time 🍵

In the quiet of isolation, what speaks to you? I’ve been considering a lot of thoughts, lately: wondering how can we create dangerously, live ethically, and survive sustainably. “Sustainable” isn’t just in reference to being eco-friendly (but yes, that too) but also in regards to how we expend energy as creatives. How can we work and live without teetering on the edge of burnout? What foundations need to be built to facilitate a happy life? Can we stroll slowly through the garden of productivity rather than sprint through it?
