Hey, I read The Artist's Way back in college, and thought it was very useful. Don't know where the book went after that......thanks for the reminder though.
Wow, that sounds like a good idea! I have problems drawing stuff because I have that same kind of "man, this is gonna suck" feeling... I like what you're doing :)
Phat shouts to you brother I've been "free writing" for the past 3 days and it's really been helping even if I have nothing to say when I first start words just pour out on tho the paper... keep up the good work
I believe that you have never been in a fight. I've talked my way out of many in my time as well. It's a gift. Interesting idea to get over on the lil hater. Maybe I should try that. Naaaa!
actually no it wasn't like that.. and I'm obviously not into being macho man so if that was the case I wouldn't front :)
I was actually perceived as a bit of a "tough guy" by other boys in HS, was on the wrestling team and such (and one of the scholarship kids from "the hood" at a ritzy private school, so perceived as one not to mess with regardless of how true that was).. but mostly i was just lucky & privileged to not grow up in circumstances where fighting was an issue very often..
ah... you seem to get "discouraged..." Which is not good, same happens to me and the studying thing. I think about it.... and then it's like.... lets play the Wii. lol.
The part about you being so excited and then brough back to reality when you get home made me smile. The same happens to me when it comes to rapping. I gotta get my 300 on too. Good luck man!
I'm really sorry, but these things freak me out sooo much!
dnt read this(cuz it really wrks). u will gt kissd on the nearest frieday by the love of ur life. 2mara wll b the bst day of ur life hwever if you dnt post ths comment 2 at least 3 vids u will die withn 2 days nw uv startd readn this dnt stp this is so scary snd ths ovr 2 5 vids in 143 mins when ur done press f6 nd ur crush's name wll appear on the screen n big letters ths is so scary cuz it actully wrks ths really wrks -
blames it on the goose, which ya, which believes loosely, to blames you receive it on the rum, which will receive ya, which feels deaf, you to blames it on alcohol
Wow. Nice. I've never heard of writing two pages of freewrite every time I wake up. Can't believe I've never heard of it. I'm going to start doing that. Your video actually taught me something today.
Free writing is good, but it is a personal thing. Telling people something won't be good won't stop them from ripping on you, for good reason. Your videos used to stand out because they used to have some forethought and planning to them. Set your standards higher and you will produce better stuff because we all know you can.
That's pretty cool. Whatever it takes to get you doing what you wanna do.
I think you should talk about biters. I sent you an email regarding a journal I had posted about biters and it had a few links that went deeper into the whole thing.
Can you do a new post about the current debt crisis?

One thing that bothers me a little...
Why arent you a youtube partner?
You got all it takes to be one.
You make videos that are watched by thousands of people.
Everything is made "by hand" and theres no copyrights that doesnt belong to you.
And you upload a lot of videos that are interesting for other people to watch.
And from what i've heard, you earn money on your membership, AND you can allso upload videos that are over the 10min limit.
