Kurt Vonnegut on becoming who you are through daily art

Now that's an idea worth playing with

Rob Lambert

May 14, 2023

In today’s HAIWPW I share a letter that Kurt Vonnegut wrote to some school children who had asked for advice on creativity and art.

It’s an old letter that has done the rounds on social media for a while, but it’s powerful. I now aim to read it everyday to inspire me to keep going.

In a nutshell, create art everyday, not for fame or recognition, but to discover who you are, what’s inside and to become you.

I share an update on Parent Brain, Take A Day Off and a little solo waffle.

Have a cracking rest of your weekend.

Until next time.
