Showing your movie to an audience... it's like your kid doing a piano recital. 'Just let it not fail. Please.'
Books are only the shadow and life the real thing. I believe this as strongly as any belief I hold.
For a long time all I wanted for Christmas were books about outdoor survival. I was convinced that the woods were calling me. I camped a lot, I took classes. At 18, I told myself if I don't live in the woods by myself by the time I'm 25, I have failed.
