You are so multi-faceted! I love that you reference people I actually know of (most creatives talk about other artists and writers and I often don't know them).

I’m a Richard Feynman fan too! I love his books. One of my favorite stories is when he bet an artist friend that he could learn to draw. He truly believed that if you put your mind to something, you can learn anything. So he signed up for a drawing class, found out he loved it, and got pretty good within a year. He even had a small solo show at Caltech within a year. 😄

Yes!!! Because I live pretty close to the Caltech campus, sometimes I'll just bring my laptop & tablet and work there. It's a nice place to work and get inspirations! 😉

Oh wow, I so needed to read this! It is such a good reminder to focus on your own satisfaction and not external validation...but hey I am just a human after all ;)
