This is an excellent book on getting in touch with, and trusting, your creative process. I recommend the audiobook but Lynch's voice is cool and his includes atmospheric wind sounds at the start of chapters.
obligatory read because its one one the highest selling books at my work, across time.
It's meh, if it was anyone other than David Lynch it wouldn't be a seller.
Love him though, love the part about Big Boys Diner

Re-read this after recently reviving my TM practice as a daily routine. Such an inspiring, endlessly wise, and very funny book.
Say what you will about the man, he's certainly a believer in Transcendental Meditation. According to Lynch, not only will the practice lead to more joy and better creativity but, if practiced by enough people, even world peace! Lynch's thoughts and advice on meditation and creativity are refreshingly straightforward and no nonsense.
I found his de-romanticization of the suffering artist and film cameras particularly useful.
"Anger and depression and sorrow are beautiful things in a a story, but they're like poison for the film maker or artist.”
Some of the passages are so brief they passed me by before I realize I'd zoned out and I had to re-listen. I would like to have a physical copy of the book so I could revisit sections at random. The book feels a bit unorganized. I suspect he's moving linearly through his career but the result is topics wavering back and forth between meditation, filmmaking, and creativity. I get the sense for Lynch, they're all deeply connected.
