Hilarious, relatable, and incredibly insightful.” —Michael Bublé, Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eFunny, conversational, and relatable, \u003ci\u003eTry Hard\u003c\/i\u003e is for anyone looking to make sense of their own creative pursuit or bring more creativity into their life, offering a framework for how to do it and where to begin.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLet’s say you see a familiar musician from a globe-trotting, touring band hanging out at your local coffee shop, reading the newspaper and typing away on his laptop. This doesn’t look like a musician at work. He seems approachable enough, so you ask him what exactly he \u003ci\u003edoes\u003c\/i\u003e all day. With a grin on his face, he admits the job might not be what you think. So you take a seat, and ask him every question you’ve ever had about how it all works: the nuts and bolts of writing a song, preparing for a show, marketing a band, and the day-to-day business of a creative life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith each answer—none of it about \u003ci\u003etalent\u003c\/i\u003e—you realize this musician is a bit of a . . . try hard. And the mystery of being a creative person isn’t actually mysterious at all: it’s just exploring ideas with an enthusiastic and determined curiosity. Over and over.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMax is that musician in the coffee shop, and this is what reading \u003ci\u003eTry Hard\u003c\/i\u003e feels like: one-of-a-kind tales from a dynamic frontman, and a companion to your own creative work in progress. With a brick-by-brick attitude, Max explores his own growth in the craft of storytelling and performance, the pleasure to be found in collaboration, and the creative spirit required in sharing your art.","brand":"Penguin Canada","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49278694555903,"sku":"9780735248878","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/de\/products\/9780735248878","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
