Amie McNee is an incredible author. With her book "We Need Your Art" she inspired me to keep creating, even though an artist's life is not always easy and I had to work other jobs. Her inspiring words are the reason for my ever growing discography of electronic music: https://kayleighbeard.bandcamp.com/

Love her fiction too: https://www.amiemcnee.com/

Amie McNee is an incredible author. With her book "We Need Your Art" she inspired me to keep creating, even though an artist's life is not always easy and I had to work other jobs. Her inspiring words are the reason for my ever growing discography of songs. I absolutely love making alternative electronic pop with my synthesizer, dreamy basslines, powerful beats and spacious vocals 🎶🎹 (check out here: https://kayleighbeard.bandcamp.com/) 🎧

Amie's fiction novels are also really good. For example, I really enjoyed her witchy novel "Regrettably, I am About to Cause Trouble". 🧙🏻‍♀️ More info: https://www.amiemcnee.com/

And speaking of Atul Gawande, this is a fascinating article about the slow uptake of (certain) ideas and practices in medicine.

Sharing Slow Ideas

Some innovations spread quickly. Atul Gawande asks, How do you share the ones that don’t?

Time to reread a favourite book of mine,

'Being Mortal - Aging, Illness, Medicine, and What Matters in the End'
By Atul Gawande

Recommended reading for anyone who knows anyone who is getting older or who will be getting older themselves at some point.

I like trying authors that are new to me but Peter Robinson is one of my go-to writers when I want a book I know I'm going to enjoy 😊 #bookstadon #peterrobinson #booklovers #favouritebooks #FavouriteAuthor
