Recommended by Ellen Airhart

Weekly art, writing, and creative inspiration from the author of Steal Like an Artist and other bestsellers.

I am always remembering pieces of advices from Austin that I've picked up over the years: stop reading books you don't like, set up a bliss station, and, especially this year, keep going. I like getting his seasonal book recommendations as well.
