Hi, nice to meet you.
I’m Siloh — writer, artist, and educator.
I write oddball literary essays, combine words and images, and generally feel at home when different forms or genres bump into each other. I bring these interdisciplinary curiosities to my Substack Essence of Toast and my podcast Experimental Practice (where I also get to talk to some really smart, thoughtful people).
As an educator and in one-on-one coaching, I help people find their way into and through the dazzling, bewildering, frustrating, and rewarding terrain of creative projects (especially when one has wandered outside the bounds of genre).
Offerings
Creative guidance for multi-passionate and differently-wired artists, writers, and other dreamers.
1:1 Coaching & Creative Services
Find ease and clarity through 1:1 coaching and editing services. Whether you’re working on a messy manuscript or a website, I’ll support you in charting your own course. (No cookie-cutter advice found here…)
Classes
I love all all things literary form, writing craft, and creative process. I share this nerdery in online workshops and self-paced courses, with a focus on cross-genre and ADHD-friendly writing techniques.
Essence of Toast
Each month I publish an essay via my newsletter Essence of Toast. From meditations on ADHD via Gaston Bachelard’s The Poetics of Space to thoughts about finding creative community when you are totally exhausted by the internet, you’ll find an archive of these letters on Substack.
