Steal Like an Artist: 10 Things Nobody Told You about Being Creative by Austin Kleon
5.0
I'm reading heavily on creativity, story, visual thinking these days. Austin Kleon is heavily involved in this space. But this book is just so-so, nothing particularly thought provoking. I'm happy to have borrowed it from the library rather than buying it. It's not bad, but I won't need a revisit.
UPDATE:
After loving the followup book Show Your Work and LOVING it, I revisited this one. I like it much better this time. It's still a bit simple, but the creative encouragement contained here will be helpful for me in years to come. I revisited this after all, and will continue to do so again.
UPDATED UPDATE:
I reread this one again this week. Loved it even better than Show Your Work in this new reread of both. Lots more highlights and flagged pages.
