Book Reviews
Austin Kleon writes, All advice in autobiographical This book is me talking to a previous version of myself These ideas apply to anyone whos trying to inject some creativity into their life and their work.The inherent problem in any book that’s a how-to for something artistic, whether it be writing or painting or making music or the artistry in tailoring a custom Voltron costume, the problem with the how-to book is that when you’re reading the how-to book you’re not doing the actual thing you’re being taught to do.
