I think people learn craft just by doing and listening too.
You dont have to learn from a book, but all the greats learn from somewhere. You can tell this simply from their language, their chord progressions, the structure.
Just knowing a song needs a chorus is part of the craft.
I think craft is the process we use to display our art. Art doesnt exist until it's put into an organized form, craft is how we do that.
It's also learning literary devices like methapor and similie, and irony, and payoffs and techniques to keep a story interesting.
The art is not learned, the craft is, that's the basic difference to me.

"Sometimes reaching a goal earlier than planned is a great achievement. It shows you have worked hard, pushed ahead and made it happen. However, sometimes reaching a goal far past your original deadline, long after you wanted to complete it, and after the accolades you might once have gotten for the achievement are over, it is an even greater achievement. This shows you never gave up, due to adversity, deficit, criticism and those little life detours that end many dreams and goals. In many ways, this is a reason for even more pride!" -Brian Austin Whitney
