Charlie Naebeck — The Inbetween
IN BETWEEN
Welcome to The Inbetween

Life got weird. I started making things out of it.

Songs. Photographs. Stories. Tiny movies. Strange ideas. Real people.

Most of it comes from the same place: somewhere between who we were and whatever the hell comes next.

What is The Inbetween?

I'm in it.
You probably
are too.

Sometimes a relationship ends. Sometimes you come home. Sometimes you lose something you thought would always be there. Sometimes you fall in love again. Sometimes you build something nobody understands yet.

Sometimes nothing dramatic happens at all. You just wake up and realize the person you used to be doesn't quite exist anymore.

That's The Inbetween.

I'm not interested in pretending I've figured it out. I'm interested in living it, making things from it, and seeing what happens next.
Right now I'm making music about surviving the middle.
What I'm making now

The Inbetween isn't just a title anymore.

It started as a song. Then it became a film. Then I realized it was sitting underneath a lot of the photographs, stories, music, relationships, places, losses, beginnings, and ridiculous ideas I've carried around for years.

Maybe becoming isn't something waiting on the other side. Maybe this is it.

Your turn

Everybody's in between something.

Maybe you're starting over.

Maybe you're building something nobody understands yet.

Maybe you lost somebody.

Maybe you finally left.

Maybe you're falling in love.

Maybe you're scared shitless.

Maybe something inside you won't leave you alone until you make it.

Whatever it is, I want to hear about it.

Become part of The Inbetween

Tell me your story.

I don't need your résumé. I don't need the polished version. I don't need you to know how the story ends.

Tell me where you actually are. What's changing? What are you chasing? What are you rebuilding? What won't leave you alone?

Some stories may become conversations. Some may inspire photographs, films, writing, music, or Create Hope projects. Some may simply be something another human needed to say.

Nothing becomes public without your permission.

Where are you in your Inbetween?

First name. Email. Your story. That's enough.

I read these myself. Your story isn't content inventory. It's your life. I don't take that lightly.
Shirley's Fund · Create Hope

Sometimes people need help through their Inbetween.

Creating gave me somewhere to put things I didn't know how to carry.

Create Hope exists to build spaces, experiences and creative opportunities where other people can make something, connect with somebody, and remember that whatever they're going through, they don't have to carry all of it alone.

One last thing

I have no idea what I'm making next.

That's kind of the point.

Life keeps happening. I keep making things out of it. If you want to see where this goes, come along.
