Hooray! It's the Angry Reader of the Week, spotlighting you, the very special readers of this website. Over the years, I've been able to connect with a lot of cool folks, and this is a way of showing some appreciation and attention to the people who help make this blog what it is. This week's Angry Reader is singer/songwriter Jane Lui.

What do you do?
For my music career: I write, produce, arrange, record, rehearse, tour, visualize, film, edit, upload, download, design, promote, market, and love every minute of this unorganized mess. Because no matter what type of work I'm doing, the thread has been to trust my instincts in an authentic approach.
What are you all about?
Connections, friendships, budget travel, yoga, learning the world through sound ... oh and peanut butter (crunchy).
I'm still learning, but basically -- first and foremost -- getting it right in being a compassionate and present person, from which creativity and endurance come.
What makes you angry?
