Start your morning with a coffee at fix! and conversation with guests of Refocus Film Festival and Iowa City Book Festival who relay their stories of daring to embark on (and finish!) a new creative project. Documentarian Brian Becker (Time Bomb Y2K), graphic novelist Sara Varon (Robot Dreams) and novelist Mindy Mejia (Everything You Want Me to Be, Leave No Trace) have all taken different paths on their creative journeys, how did they all take first steps, stay motivated, and get to the finish line of a self-created project?

*Open to the public. Free drip coffee for passholders.
