My name is Joce Aucoin.

I’m a writer and artist, co-owner of the late/great Lujo Records, author/illustrator of poetry comic, Multitudes, creator of the Ojai Creatives online community, etc. etc..

The only thing you really need to know? I like to create and help others create.

Jump + Pray is a weekly offering to aid and encourage you on your creative journey.

Living a creative life (in a capitalist society) is brave. I hope you create what’s in your heart to create and I hope that if you’re having trouble doing that, Jump + Pray can help get you closer.

Of course, you can subscribe to Jump + Pray. This newsletter is meant to inspire you to contemplation and creative action. To nudge you forward in living into your one wild and precious life.

I also send original art in the mail on my website.

And if community is your thing and you’re local to Ojai, please come to an Ojai Creatives meetup. OC is a friendly, vibrant and supportive community of makers, artists and creatives. Come hang.

My home on the web is here and I’m also on instagram. Thank you for reading.
