    I got the book “Art Saves” this week — popped it onto my iPad for some creative inspiration. Had no idea you were in it and was pleasantly surprised to see your submission. XO

    i read the derek siver’s book last night. loved it. there were so many things he said so well. and i was particularly moved by what he said about when you’re onto something great, about how it doesn’t feel like a revolution. rather it feels like uncommon sense.

    aaaahhh — thought it looks clunky and ridiculous, i do want that slr mount for my iphone.

    I thought Black Swan was worse than underwhelming. So many ballet cliches and stereotypes. I’d watched that on the plane out and then saw The Adjustment Bureau on the way home. It’s not going on my favourites list but it was very watchable!

    Hi Susannah,
    Thank you so much for sharing so many beautiful things. I was up at night, couldn’t sleep and the links you shared improved my mood. Especially love that last photograph with the wale. What I love about your website is that it always leaves me feeling better….never drained….thank you!

    I always look forward to a visual and poetic treat from you. When you are silent, I hope you are editing and drinking coffee. Your world fascinates me.

    I love the “Myths about Introverts”! Especially #9 and #10. I am an introvert and have studied personality theory in school, but I never knew about the dopamine sensitivity, so I’m fascinated! And #10 – yes indeed – I used to feel flawed for being introverted, especially as a child, but have learned to value that aspect of myself; now that one of my children is an introvert, I am able to help him learn how to recognize when he needs alone time, how to recharge, and that it’s NOT a flaw, just who he is.
