Episode notes
Do you think most great artists are more susceptible to the bitter sweet than average? I do think many great artists are, yes. And again, it's not depression itself that makes creative work much harder, but this quality of bitter sweetness which basically means being willing to expose yourself to all the different emotions is what often feels great art. The next question is a personal one, and you answer it in the book. So feell fe to direct people to the book because you're very candid in the book too, about your own experiences.
