I mean, you do, you know, for for years I had the you know, years reading the the the war of art over and over and
No, I'm I'm not always as prepared as I am this time, but it just happens to be uh happens to be something that I'm pretty pretty knowledgeable about.
And I will say this about the war of art too, like
I'll go on walks a lot and I'll I'll throw in my ear pods, uh airpods and uh
And I'll just listen to it and and I'll catch something out of it that I didn't that I didn't catch any other times.
And then the other books, your other nonfiction works, I find to be

But it doesn't do you any good to overcome resistance if you don't have kind of the mechanics of writing as well.
So it's it's a little bit of both, I guess.
And you can find a lot of books about the craft, but not so much about the mindset.
Sure.
