This week Bronte Charlotte chats with award winning playwright Kim Ho, the Asian-Australian creative who wrote the viral short film Language of Love. We chat about the internal battle of feeling like not having anything important to say, moving from writing with your brain to finding the heart and emotion of the story, and how creativity manifests differently for everyone during an experience like an extended lockdown.
