Loading... Embrace Your Weird: Face Your Fears and Unleash Creativityby Felicia Day
   None No current Talk conversations about this book.  ragwaine | Dec 29, 2023 |   It's been a rough several years, something I'm not alone in. But in that the art education I was raised with kept being pushed down the list. It just wasn't important. But it was. When I heard about this book it just felt like I needed it right then. It not all that common for me (I have a system). But I ordered it that night. Maybe it was covid, but getting my art back wasn't optional. I needed it. But this book did that and more. Yes, I have the art back. But I also found more that I needed. Creativity isn't just paint - it's also creating a life. This is the best empowered therapy/art/fun/grounding and growing book you can get. And if you need to catch your breathe and come back you can't do better.

I didn't realize this was about Creativity and kind of a guide to "unleashing creativity" even though it's in the title, because I didn't read the entire title. :) Seeing that I don't have any fears about creativity other than never finally publishing something, and also seeing that Ms. Day narrated this book sounding like a 17-year-old whose had one too many Red Bulls, I immediately thought about switching to another book. BUT she was kind of funny, and I decided not to be a grumpy old man and step out of my comfort zone.
It was good. It really does seem to be aimed at young creators and anyone trying to motivate young creators is okay in my book. She had some great ideas and a lot of silliness. I did find it motivating and it's a good time too, because with the new year come new focuses and hopefully I'll take some of her advice. (
