📚 Books

Read Steal like an Artist by Austin Kleon. One of the best books I’ve read this year. Short, simple, powerful. Copy (don’t plagiarize) others. Learn the thinking behind their thoughts. Google everything (don’t ask people things you can just Google), fake it ‘til you make it, embrace your side projects. Give your secrets away. Don’t worry if your work isn’t unified. It’s unified b/c it’s coming from you. It’s OK to be a military veteran who plays music and writes children’s books…
