This is a must read for anyone who – in a broad sense – creates. To create meaning: turning ideas into reality. Austin Kleon, who made himself known for his brilliant Newspaper Blackout Poems, is providing us with a list, that he claims is essentially “me talking to a previous version of myself”. 10 things he wished he knew when we was younger. My favourite: “Fake it ‘til you make it”. I gladly repeat myself: this is a must read.
