I believe in the power of subtlety in performance. Sometimes, the smallest gestures can convey the deepest emotions.
The best solutions come from listening to those who work the land every day.
Read, read, read. Read everything — trash, classics, good and bad, and see how they do it. Just like a carpenter who works as an apprentice and studies the master. Read! You'll absorb it. Then write. If it's good, you'll find out. If it's not, throw it out of the window.
