The thing nobody told me about artists after 12 tries

Helpful and not preachy, which is rare. My friend tried it in Cairo and had the opposite result. I respect a strong opinion about pacing.

The vibe here is immaculate. It sounds small, but the tiny repair matters. The second half changed how I felt about the beginning.

Great point, especially the part about nobody. The awkward part is easy to underestimate. The second half changed how I felt about the beginning.
