In 2020, I published a year-long series on @DJBooth digging into Frank's catalog, penned by the incredible @DonnaCWrites and illustrated by incomparable @thejakefranssen. If you love Frank like we love Frank, lose yourself in #NostalgiaFOREVER.

Reading @DonnaCWrites and @Yoh31 articles on @DJBooth got me through all of my college lectures.

Every week, artists, new and old, ask me the same questions:
“How do I stand out?”
“What can I do differently?”
