The Big Fish
Recently my wife gave me this collection of writings on and by David Lynch. Since I'm a big fan of Lynch it was great being able to start browsing through these as soon as I got them. My favorite one at the moment is "Catching The Big Fish", mainly because it deals with creativity and how Lynch approaches the whole creative process. A dedicated practitioner of TM he puts great emphasis on using meditation as a vehicle to go within and catch ideas or fragments of ideas where they live, or dwell, or develop, however you want to look at it. His writings give you the confidence to trust the process and go with it to see your ideas come to fruition as you slowly dial back the noise, stress and distractions of life. One of the clearest explanations of working the creative process that I've come across. Lynch, along with his work in cinema is a painter and advocate of the "Art Life" and being dedicated to that life and the work that it entails. I highly recommend this book. I also have it on Audible so I can listen to while I drive. Great stuff!
