So, You’re Creative. Are You a Narcissist?

My friend’s a narcissist. Let’s call him Ronin. I once told Ronin I thought he displayed all the hallmarks of narcissism including self-absorption, a lack of empathy and the need for recognition. I said it as a joke so I’m not sure he believed me. Ronin is not only egotistic; he’s also annoyingly talented with the paintbrush — every stroke a little truth. I told him that as well; he believed it.
