A Lynch in time ...
I recently started reading David Lynch's book, "Catching the Big Fish" with his thoughts on creativity and meditation and how he applies all of it to his life and films. It's a short piece that should be read a little at a time so you can ponder the meaning -- how what he says applies to your situation.
I feel we all need a little inspiration from time to time. And learning how others approach their art is worthwhile. This book is especially poignant as it's not a biography. It's a bunch of random thoughts on random topics that somehow, like most of Lynch's film, seem to sum into a greater whole.
Here's my favorite line for you to ponder from the book: "The more the artist is suffering, the less creative he is going to be. It's less likely that he is going to enjoy his work and the less likely he will be able to do really good work."
