05 - Am I an Artist and Travel Time


What is an artist? How do you know if what you create is good? Can you trust feedback? Even then, confidence in the work falters, that's why it's difficult to share written work.
Ward talks about the NaNoWriMo contest- writing a novel in thirty days. Ward's done it twice.
Ward extols the great prose of Cormac McCarthy and concedes that Dan Brown has great ideas.
Is wanting to travel a natural instinct or a nurtured desire? Can you teach someone to like traveling? Ward recounts an afternoon in New York and Eric has New York stories as a kid and where he's traveled as an adult. He considers himself a want-to-be Italian and would move to Italy in an instant if he won the lottery.
If you want baseball Hall of Fame baseball player Steve Garvey's autograph, perhaps you should throw a glove at him.
The top three this week, which cities do you want to see?
Ward's picks are Cooperstown, NY, Italy, and Hong Kong, China. Eric's picks are Sydney, Australia, Tokyo, Japan, and New York
