Hello and welcome to another episode of Not Too Deep on Your Host Grace Helbig. I'm overjoyed

for you to listen or watch this episode this week. We have the one and only Connor Franta

with me who you know, YouTube, extraordinaire, artist, extraordinaire, runner extraordinaire,

my old buddy. He's got a new book out called House Fires, which is his third book. It's a collection

of short stories, poetry, photography, all these beautiful artistic endeavors that he's grown into.

We talk about the idea of a growing and evolving as an artist, especially in the digital space,

which is difficult to do. It makes many people uncomfortable. Lots of you okay comments. We talk

about the tick-tack of it all. We talk about his mother listening to his audio book for the first time

among many many other things. Connor is just such a joy to listen to. He's got such wise advice

and thoughts about the world, especially one coming from beautiful artistic soul. You can tell

that Austin has a great sense of humor. So please enjoy this episode of Not Too Deep with Connor

going, it's kind of hard to stop in a weird way. It's like you really get into that rhythm and I'm like,

well, what if I just add on a mile? What if I just add on two miles? I should kind of keep going.

Well, because I wonder many thoughts and I haven't mentally ill. No, no, no, you're mentally
