Synopsis
The Habit of Noticing: Using Creativity to Make a Life (and a Living) is Darden Smith’s most adventurous, and certainly most personal project to date. The book is full of stories pulled from his life in and out of music, and the people he has met along the way. The collection is a look at where he comes from, what he’s seen and heard as he tried to figure out how to get along in the world, his inspirations and influences, the importance of commitment and endurance in tough times, why you should always be yourself, and the beauty that comes from finding meaning in your work and your life.
