Make It: 50 Myths and Truths About Creating, (Paperback)

Nobody gets tapped with a magic wand and suddenly has the ability to make great music, photos, films, writing, or any other kind of creative expression-they just try. And you probably should too.

"OK," you say. "But what about ________ ?"

That's exactly what's in Make It: answers to all the reasons we give ourselves to not sit down and start working on our Real Art Thing. If you could use a polite but firm kick in the ass to get going, or just some reassurance that you're not the only would-be creative with a slight to moderate crisis of confidence, this book is for you: 50 illustrated micro-essays to get you through roadblocks at the beginning, middle, or end of your project, and onto the next one.
