I’m super interested in getting a Free Write Traveller for creative writing but it’s hard to justify the price.

There’s an interesting interview with the Iranian filmmaker Abbas Kiarostami where the interviewer was asking why he doesn’t just come to Hollywood, because he wouldn’t have to deal with you know censorship and artistic training wheels or what have you. And Kiarostamisaid that he felt more creative with fewer options and preferred to stay in Iran. He went on to make one movie outside of Iran but I really can relate to what he said. Our phones and computers, really our culture, has been infected with distractions which are pulling us away from what we should be doing towards bad faith actors with junk for sale.
