Hurt him. Hurt him and save him
In the '60s not everybody was wearing flowers in their hair and flowing caftans.
I do find walking is fundamental to my creative process.
Everything I make starts very personally.
To be honest, there is a tourists' trail; my family had a farm and a gas station, and you can go and see my birthplace, though where I lived is actually under a freeway now.
Be careful whose advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it.
