Book of the Week: Steal Like an Artist

“Write the kind of story you like best – write the story you want to read. The same principle applies to your life and your career: Whenever you’re at a loss for what move to make next, just ask yourself, “What would make a better story?”
– Austin Kleon, Steal Like an Artist

Another day, another book about creativity. I adored this one. Short, snappy and full of my favourite things: stories and wisdom. Highlighted half the book. Lots to chew on in this.

“Amassing a body of work or building a career is a lot about the slow accumulation of little bits of effort over time. Writing a page each day doesn’t seem like much, but do it for 365 days and you have enough to fill a novel.”
– Austin Kleon, Steal Like an Artist
