Bette Davis didn't have this problem

Y'know, most of the time I think Robin Hobb is bit of a crackpot with her somewhat luddite stance regarding the internet and writers:

but then something happens like today, where I sit down to take a brief break from writing, and end up spending an hour on Youtube because I found some new and cool thing and got distracted.

Today's distraction: Speed Painting.

This one's my favorite. Fricken' Mascara, man!

Uh. Back to work. I'm pretty sure I have a character's life to screw over. That's easily as fun as speed painting, right?

(for the record, I love Robin's work, I just think she's a little too on the "what's bad for me is bad for everyone else" side of the fence).

I don't know of the rant you speak of, but the speed painting is cool. I was mostly impressed with being able to do a painting like that with mascara. Personally, I think it's even more impressive when they are doing the speed painting in real time. Though most things are super fast compared with how long it takes me to draw or paint something...lol
