I’ve never considered listening to Bird by Bird, but because I too love it, it’s going in my Audible library. Thanks, Danny. Substack seems to agree with you. I’m still finding my way around, but with some of “my people” here as guideposts, I know I won’t be lost for long.

I’ve heard many people say the same things about the familiar. When I first thought about it I thought that I didn’t fit that description, and then I started looking around. I found my totems and talismans to the familiar everywhere. Thanks, Danny!

I’ve been fearful. I’ve been brave. And looking through my shelf of sketchbooks, I was braver and more eloquent than I thought. Your words always make me think you’re in my mind, you articulate many things I don’t dare air. Didn’t realise needed airing. Didn’t think it was a Thing other people think about. So thank you.. Your new book has gone on my I Would Love This Please list.

Always love to cozy up on the couch with on of you YouTube videos playing in the background while I play with non-perfection in my sketchbook. I’m currently on day 76 of drawing each day and loving the new practice of play and creativity. Thanks Danny!

Bird by Bird was a favorite read. I'll have to pick it up again for another listen.
