Mike Sledge
As I craft my work and brand, I often incorporate spiritualism of the kind described by Jung, but incorporated in the work of Joseph Campbell who believes that the archetypes we see time and again are embedded in our DNA, are part of the course of our belief systems. I feel we have moved away from what is truly important—life, spirituality, love of our fellow human beings—and have become caught up in a rat's race where, despite how hard we run we never get anywhere. My purpose as who I am, a writer, is to call into question entrenched beliefs and patterns of behavior that are held and performed more out of habit (or fear of change) than for any actual good purpose.
