Hey! I met you just now (and I'm still still watching you work
). Thanks for approaching me and for taking the time to discuss our common ground. You seem determined and your work is great so I'm not going to wish you luck -- all you need is time/practice and an opportunity. Keep doing what you love and don't let anything get in your way. Making connections is important but it's most important of all to be excellent (so no one can turn you down). Do all you can to develop your skills and the mindset necessary to deliver your gift to the world. I'm here if you ever need encouragement or support. Peace.
This is the book list I was telling you about:
