Rebecca Weaver and David Weaver --this is especially for you. I learned a lot as I listened to one of my favorite writers here. Ive shared below some of what I gleaned while listening... ----------------------------------- If you dont know its impossible, its easier to do... If you make mistakes, it means youre out there doing something... Most of us find our own voices after we sound like a lot of other people... Write and draw and build and destroy as only you can. The moment you start to walk down the street, with your heart and mind exposed to the possible judgements of others..., may be the moment you start to get it right... Advice to Neil Gaiman from Stephen King: You should enjoy your work. But he didnt. Instead he worried... about what would come next, about the quality of what he was doing at the moment Whatever discipline you are in --musician, photographer, writer, cartoonist, dancer-- whatever you do, you have one thing that is unique. You have the ability to make art. Sometimes life is hard, times are difficult, and you dont know what to do. Make good art. Husband runs off with a politician. Make good art. Leg crushed and the youre eaten by a mutated boa constrictor. Make good art. Someone on the internet thinks what youre doing is stupid or evil. Make good art. Do what only you do best. Make good art. Do it on the bad days; do it on the good days, too.
