Twitter is a human seismograph

I have no Facebook page or Twitter - I don't participate in it, and I don't like it particularly. I mean, it's a form of interaction, which strikes me as extremely superficial.

Don't slag off other creators or companies.

A few snarky words today can ruin a chance for an incredibly rewarding creative partnership tomorrow.

When people say, "Show your face, you're not ugly." I want to say, "I know. I'm not doing it because I think I'm ugly; I'm trying to have some control over my image.
