Being an unpredictable actor (in a GOOD way!)

Where's kabookit?

I know it wasn't much of a resource but I *did* occasionally look at it - it used to be linked at the top of Actor's Access. That link is gone, and the direct URL to the site throws a 404 error. Their twitter still seems to be up. What happened? Anyone know?

How do you deal with the fact that some acting teachers who are known/popular in the business might be big fans and call you talented and come see you perform while others show you/imply you’re not good at all or don’t like you. 1)Will it close doors? 2)

I don’t know if it’s a good or a bad thing if I name names? But if it’s OK to do so then I will update this post because I would like to know what people think of these teachers (if you know them/had them) but at the same time I don’t want to open my mouth if...

Do you find staying off of social media helps you be a better artist/actor?

I am in debate of deleting all social media. I just honestly feel unfocused. I also don’t like comparing myself to other actors. Anyway, hopefully no hate comments.. but I just wanted to ask what people’s experiences are with it.

Which one is more....applicable, as it relates to an actors career? I know both are important and solid but is there one that is more beneficial? Just looking for opinions. I don’t think there’s a right or wrong answer here.
