Nashville has a formula, and it works a lot of the time, but it wasn't right for me. They're afraid to step outside the box - even though, with me, my success came because I was outside of the box to begin with.
Well, one always has an instinct to be a painter, and I've done quite a lot of painting at one time or another, though not with any public success.
