The Book Pile
The War of Art by Steven Pressfield
Show Notes

This book says, if you want to be creative, treat your creativity a little more like a job! (Sadly wait for a machine to take your place. See your expectations dashed as the steady economic progress since WWII stagnates and you become the first family member in generations not to surpass their parents. It’s confusing advice.) Plus, Kellen decides whether or not to summon bears and Dave thanks this author for his own nickname.
