I discovered I hate people who call themselves and their work the ‘creme de la creme’. I think if your work is THAT good, then the work should speak for itself.
I met someone in the Philippines who could not stop calling herself and her work the ‘creme de la creme’. It totally turned me off from actually investigating her work for herself. I was impressed enough with her awards and such… but her repetition just turned me off from her and whatever else she’s done.
So, I’m not really impressed anymore. And I found it highly ironic that someone who had been divorced a few times could write a book on how to make one’s marriage/relationship work.
