Hoe kun je zo weinig zeggen in zoveel tekst? Hij heeft zich duidelijk niet aan zijn eigen advies gehouden: “Als je een boek hebt geschreven van meer dan driehonderd pagina’s, probeer het dan terug te brengen tot minder dan honderd zonder de essentie te verliezen.”

a lot of the concepts talked about in this book are true but they’re not presented in a big welcoming way for people struggling with their creativity imo. and maybe that’s not the audience but ….. idk who else would pick up this book. some parts of this are good reminders — how there’s a different energy between collecting seeds of inspiration and refining/crafting, how it helps to change up parts of your process to see what floats to the surface, how competing with other people doesn't make sense for a creative project because the goal is self-expression and answering to yourself. i think if i picked up this book when i was mega-blocked, it would’ve gone right over my head because these lessons aren’t gonna unblock me. while listening to this book, i kept remembering julia cameron’s “the artist way” and the gentle and methodical way she coaxed out my inner artist. this book, in contrast, is like the bullet point lifehack version of that. basically, some of these tips are useful, some aren't, there's a lot in here to pick from, most of these tips aren't never-before-heard but it could be useful to have them all in one spot. for me though, this kind of voice isn't the kind i like for creative process books. and frankly there are so many guides written by artist men about the creative process that i have to question if we need another one
i’ve spent the past year trying to find my way into the interiors of the idea of ‘artistry’ and what it means for me to be a poet and what the expressions of this world are,,,,,, and mr rubin helped,, eh,,,, feels like,, good but,,, smth needed the walls to move more,, maybe, idk i’m done trying to figure this out rn
