Oh, hi!

I’m Kara Cutruzzula, a writer, editor, playwright, and lyricist.

Brass Ring is a quick, daily note of encouragement from me to you.

Topics covered include: the creative process, working through projects, failures and rejection, and balancing where you are and where you want to be.

I believe in trying to do a little bit every day to move yourself forward.

And I want to help you do your best and most meaningful work!

Whether you're beginning or trying to finish a project, considering a career change, or simply need a bit of optimism, I hope I’ve got something for you.

The history

I began writing this newsletter in January 2017. We're hit over 1,500 issues. That's a lot of Sondheim references, my friends.

Over the years, Brass Ring has been featured and mentioned in the New York Times’ Smarter Living section, Vanity Fair, Inc., and Lifehacker.

Other fun stuff

Many of the ideas and inspiration found in the newsletter are expanded on in my three motivational journals: Do It For Yourself, Do It Today, and Do It (or Don’t): A Boundary-Creating Journal.

Thanks so much for being here. It means more than you know.
