Mailbox Monday: Make It Mighty Ugly
Thanks for joining me for Mailbox Monday! MM was created by Marcia, who graciously hosted it for a long, long time, before turning it into a touring event. Mailbox Monday has now returned to its permanent home where you can link to your MM post.
I got one book last week, and I already started reading it:
Make It Mighty Ugly: Exercises & Advice for Getting Creative Even When It Ain't Pretty: A Handbook for Vanquishing Creative Demons by Kim Piper Werker. I saw this in the Sasquatch Books fall catalog and was immediately drawn to it.
Make It Mighty Ugly is about overcoming "demons" like procrastination, self-doubt, and perfectionism to be more creative. I usually associate creativity with arts-and-crafts, DIY projects, and maybe fiction writing. But I plan to read Werker's book with and eye to my law practice because I think the same demons restrict creative thinking in the workplace.
Sounds like it could be very helpful to any business!
ReplyDeleteLove the sound of this one!

ReplyDeleteSounds like my kind of book. I like non-fiction books that teach me new things. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteSounds one for me!
ReplyDeleteWow...sounds terrific.
ReplyDeleteI definitely do not procrastinate, but I am a perfectionist and am obsessive about things.
I need to take a look at this book.
