This episode delves into Scotti Mann's journey from a 15 year old playing in his father's band, to now authoring children's books and penning an original comic book series.
A life-changing hernia operation and the resulting damage to Scotti's vocal cords mark a pivotal moment in his journey, leading to self-reflection and the pursuit of new creative avenues. In the wake of his injury, Scotti's battle with depression and his determination to rediscover his passions are discussed with openness and vulnerability.
His transition from music to children's book writing signifies a renaissance of art in his life. His first children's book, spurred by sketches of his son and dog, becomes a tangible representation of his evolving artistry. The process of creating a children's book is explored, highlighting the impact of storytelling on young minds and the satisfaction derived from seeing one's work cherished by others.
He also provides insight into the world of indie comics through his experiences. Creating his dark comic series "Sunset Dawning" showcases the laborious yet exhilarating craft of comic book art. Scotti shares the challenges he faces as an independent artist in a market dominated by industry giants and the shift towards embracing diverse narratives in indie comics.
Throughout the podcast it's evident that Brad and Scotti have been good friends for many years. They share laughs and stories of the many times they collaborated to create music for themselves and others... More than 30 years later they are still good friends and still laugh quite a lot. :)
