i’ve been a fan of austin kleon’s work for a few years now, and i was eager to get my hands on his latest book, “steal like an artist”. billed as a “manifesto for creativity in the digital age”, it’s chock full of great quotes, illustrations, and advice on how to follow your interests and embrace your influences. and though the title says “artist”, the material inside is applicable to any medium. it’s perfect for creatively-frustrated creative types (which i know many of you are), and i loved it so much that i want to give you a copy!

I wear this lion face because you did this to me
“why are you blaming me?” you say?
remember the day you said you would never hurt me?
well you did
one too many times
I’m sick and tired of you hitting me
I hate it when you call me names
I cry when you never introduce me to your friends nor your parents
and I wish I could disappear from the face of the earth every time you publicly embarrass me
so you see, I wear this lion face so you would never, EVER, hurt me any longer
you created me to be a mean-hearted woman to men like you
I wear this lion face and I enjoy the feeling I get from it.
