Ben Levin is a musician, visual artist, and educator. He runs the Ben Levin Music School where he hosts courses that help artists find their voice, finish music, and maintain and cultivate their love of music-making. Ben's YouTube Channel hosts his art, music, and educational content. His new album Heaven Heaven Heaven features indie, alternative rock music with 2 Fender Bass VIs at its core. Ben and I explore the complexities of artistic identity, the challenges of navigating platforms like YouTube, and the importance of creativity in education. Ben explains the challenges of being artistically honest and following our passions while trying to create a consistent online presence that cooperates with the algorithms so we can actually make a living artistically.

Use the code MPP15 to save 15%! https://babyaud.io Listen on Apple, Spotify, YouTube Takeaways: Ben Levin discusses the duality of being a multifaceted artist. Navigating the YouTube landscape requires balancing creativity and marketability. Batch production of content can help manage audience expectations. The importance of creating space for endings in artistic work. Teaching creativity in schools can enhance student engagement. Understanding modes in music requires contextual learning. The arts provide essential emotional support during difficult times. Artistic expression can be a powerful healing tool. Personal growth in music production often involves collaboration and community. The creative process is often nonlinear and requires patience. The Fender Bass VI offers a unique sound that bridges bass and guitar. Authenticity in vocal performance resonates more than technical perfection. Finding one's voice is a journey that requires exploration and practice. The creative process is often more rewarding than the final product. Vulnerability in music can create a deeper connection with listeners. Teenage experiences and emotions can be effectively expressed through music. Balancing humor and seriousness in art can enhance emotional impact.

Book Favorites Website http://benlevinauthor.com/ YouTube https://youtu.be/OGYibEJBE8Q Transcript Stephen: today on Discovered Wordsmiths, I want to welcome Ben Levine. Ben, good morning. How are you doing Levin? Let me rewind and back that up. I'm messing this all up today. Alright, so today on Discover Wordsmith, let me welcome Ben Levin. Ben, how are you doing today? Good morning. I'm doing all right. Ben: Thank you, Stefan. And you, Stephen: You're doing all right. As long as I keep getting things correct instead of messing things up on what we're talking about. Sorry. That's okay. All right. So Ben tell us a little bit about who you are, where you live, what you like to do, some things you outside of writing. I'm currently going Ben: to college at Fairleigh Dickinson University, and I am, I live in Mottville, New Jersey. In addition to writing, I like to read, relax, sometimes go on walks and do active stuff, even though I don't do it as often as I'd like. Stephen: Gotcha. And being in school that keeps you pretty busy. Anyway. Yeah, I remember. Yeah, it's a fun time. Good time. You like to read, we're gonna talk a little bit about some of your favorite books and stuff later, but what are you studying in college? Creative writing. Okay. It fits right in. How's that going? You enjoying it? Yes. Yeah. We'll assume you're doing well 'cause I don't want you to embarrass yourself if you're not. So we'll just say, Ben, I'm glad you're doing so well in college. That's good. But let, we're gonna talk about that too, also a little bit about what it's like to write while still in school. And you started writing before college, so we'll talk a little bit about that too. Let's talk about your latest books. You've got several books out in a series. Tell us a little bit about that. You mean about Nellie's friends? Nellie's friends? Yes. Ben: What exactly do you want to know Stephen: about it? Sorry. Tell us what the series is about. What it is it's about healthy. Is it mystery? Little bit of it's a. Ben: Okay. It's a kid series, a little girl series about a girl named Nelly who moves to Illinois from New York. And after she leaves all her friends behind her favorite hobby becomes making new ones. Each book is about a new friend she makes and the adventure they have together. Stephen: Okay, nice. So why did you wanna write a series of books about a girl who's trying to make friends? Ben: The idea initially came to me in fourth grade, a time when I was obsessed with things stereotypically meant for girls, like dolls and girl books, and part of me wanted to explore this interest more. Okay. And Nelly's friend seemed like the right way to do it. Stephen: Nice. Okay. You know what are you using any of these books for part of your schoolwork, creative writing, or is this all on the side? All on the side. Okay. So are you picking up some things in college that are helping with the writing? Or are you Yes. Okay. Like what have you learned in school that's helped with your latest writing? I have to think. Okay. Yeah. Sorry. Throwing 'em at you, you're not ready for, got it. Ben: I've never really thought of it that way but I'm almost certain I've learned Stephen: something. Yeah. I hope, yeah. You're spending a lot of time and money there, so I hope they're giving you something right. That's true. How many books do you have in the series right now? Ben: Published or in general

Subscribe to The Locher Room: https://bit.ly/TheLocherRoomPlease join me in The Locher Room to meet three talented authors with three distinct stories to share.Melissa Braverman's new book Notes From A Single Gal In The City – Reflections On Dating & Mating is inspired by her popular blog, SingleGalNYC. The book offers insights about today's dating culture as well as advice geared towards singles 30+ for navigating it. Hailed by fans of her SingleGalNYC blog as New York's real-life Carrie Bradshaw, Melissa has been through it all. From online dating disasters and the trials of texting to cheeky old flames, her stories will strike a chord with anyone juggling modern mores and a desire to meet someone special. With an optimistic tone, Notes From A Single Gal In The City illustrates how the journey to finding love is as important as the destination.Dr. Ziva Bakman-Flamhaft's memoir War Widow: How the Six Day War Changed my Life is a story about a young girl born in Tel Aviv, Israel. Her childhood years were marked by my mother's severe recurrent depression. Like other children she blamed herself for her mother's illness. Nothing original about that. Like many more children around the world, she grew up in times of war. Like other women, she fell madly in love with a man too popular among the opposite sex and got married young in spite of doubting her decision. Again, nothing unusual. Like other women she suffered two miscarriages: a girl, who was too small to survive after twenty-two weeks of pregnancy, and a boy who lived for thirty-six hours after twenty-six weeks of pregnancy. Years later technology would have him survive. Ziva went through a corrective procedure, and was "as good as new," planning another pregnancy.Becoming a young war widow is not extraordinary either. But, seeing your husband burnt beyond recognition and hearing his deafening last breaths, your body succumbing because of the shock, suffering a near death experience, being medically abused in the hospital where you stay while trying desperately to save your pregnancy, losing your unborn child after your husband's death and blaming yourself for depriving your in-laws of the grandchild they wanted so badly, is not an ordinary tale.Dr. Ziva Bakman-Flamhaft is a lecturer in Political Science at Queens College/CUNY, a Fulbright scholar, and a writer and a memoirist. Dr. Bakman-Flamhaft has appeared in numerous academic conferences in the US and abroad and has been a guest lecturer and a speaker in other forums, including radio and TV.Ben Levin is an autistic young adult with a passion for writing. His first young adult novel, “In The Hole,” is out now. In “In The Hole,” nine-year-old David Kimball finds his safe and secure world unexpectedly unraveling after discovering his father has lost the family restaurant business, and subsequently their home. Forced to live in a borrowed car until it too is lost, David, together with his parents and sister, Julia, desperately seek shelter. After finding temporary housing in a decrepit inn, together with other individuals facing homelessness, David struggles to maintain a sense of normalcy even as his family faces the challenges and trauma of being homeless. Over time, through hard work and the support of their family and community, David searches for the inner strength and outward skills needed to help his family triumph over their dire circumstances. Will David and his family make it out of the hole? Ben is a true inspiration to all around him. He says that “Autism is not a curse – it is a gift.Original Airdate: 9/1/2021

Although people with autism can have difficulties with these basic tasks, many people see autism as a curse rather than a gift.

This unique perspective can lead to successful careers in fields such as engineering or mathematics.Key Take-Aways From The EpisodeIs Autism a gift or a curse?What was it like growing up with Autism?About Ben's new booksAbout The GuestBen has always loved to write.
