Has anyone read Steal Like An Artist or Show Your Work by Austin Kleon? 🤔

Here's a list of top ideas from Chapter 1 of Show Your Work Chp 1 | You don't have to be a genius 🟠 Find a Scenius | The big idea 👇 The healthier way of thinking of creativity is that of a 'scenius'. Creativity is an act of collaboration. The greatest 'geniuses' (lone geniuses) of all time were all part of a 'whole scene of people' who were supporting each others work and building on each others work.
