Stefan T.Wong didnβt originally come to me to work on his book, Talking to Crows. He actually came to get another project edited, but what happened was a reluctant writing project that became a profound and introspective creation.
In this episode of βAuthors Who Lead,β I talk to Stefan about his unexpected journey in writing this book, Talking to Crows, and the creativity and spiritual nature of writing.
