GOOD READS AND SOME HORN TOOTING.

Pyragraph.com is an online publication devoted to Career, Culture, and How-To, as related to art, design, film, stage, and writing. See “How Being a Child Beauty Queen Made Me a Better Artist” by Alexandra Gjurasic. Apart from my own bias – since I am favorably mentioned in the article – Gjurasic’s article is well worth a read.
