I have to whittle down my "to read" list I think before I take more books on, but I really want to get some on creativity.

I've been reading it and, though you have to take her orientation with a grain of salt, I think that you would really like it. First because it is organized in a way that I think you would appreciate based on how you like to work and second because even if you don't find everything applicable to you, there are enough ideas in the weekly program and exercises, that it gives you something to think about as a starting point.

I'm at a conference but on email so we can either chat that way or chat in the phone when I get back.

For example, look at the life you have created! I think it is more about how you perceive and interpret - both the internal and the external. But, I do think that you would really enjoying cultivating a creative skill outside of writing. It is a good chance to get out of your head. How about dance? I would love to talk with you about this as I have been on a creative mission for the past few months myself. I have LOTS to say.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13356910790970958736noreply@blogger.com
