Last night, I was listening to a podcast from the Entrepreneurial Thought Leaders lecture series out of Stanford. (Apparently, not just my books are becoming more business-related now that I’m self-employed).
This specific lecture was by Gale Anne Hurd. It’s OK if you aren’t sure who she is … I didn’t know before the podcast, either. She’s the film producer behind such gems as The Terminator and Aliens. I haven’t seen either of those movies, actually, but that’s not the point.
Ms Hurd spoke eloquently about the film industry when she first arrived; about being a woman in a world of men. She credits her success to two role models, one of whom being Roger Corman. Something she said stuck with me, and I had to capture it.
That image is of the clouds outside my window last night. I’ve been taken with the gorgeous sunsets we’ve had and inspired by Minna May to use them as backdrops for quotes I want to hang on to.
Arent cloud pictures great? I always thought it would be such a good coffee table book idea to set up a tripod (in a large window maybe?) and take a picture of the sky at the same time every day for a year. See the changes in weather, seasons, ect. Cute, no?
I love that idea! That would be really cool.
Excellent sentiment. And you’re totes doing it, too.
Aw, thank you!
