It took me a little over a month to read it, even though it probably would've been a quick read if I had some uninterrupted time. It would make a good book to take on a trip.
My favorite part of the book was the interviews and nuggets of wisdom. I loved getting the perspective of other artists on what they think the artistic voice is, and hearing about their journey to finding their own. The illustrations of each artist done by Lisa were so whimsical and charming!
All in all, this book was like getting a pep talk from your best friend, inspirational, and the quick boost I needed. The breakdown of the artistic voice gave me a lot to think about. I would definitely recommend this book to any creative who might be struggling (like I have recently).
I use Goodreads to keep up with the books I'm reading (because it's usually 5 at the same time), and decided to start a read with HQ book club. Right now I've been picking books about creativity, but I may get bored in the future and pick a just for fun book. I'd love to have discussions about books with other creatives, so feel free to join. It is super laid back, since I'm busy and a mom it takes me a bit longer than a month to finish a book.
This month I am reading:
Felicia Day is one of my favorite geeky people! I loved her last book and can't wait to dive in to this one! I hope you'll join my laid back book club and read along. I'll post my thoughts once I finish. Happy Reading!
