If you only have the time to read one blog entry or news article today, read Garr Reynold’s blog (Presentation Zen) entry, “You are creative (who the %$#@! says you're not?)”. In it, he summarises the advice Brenda Ueland wrote in 1938 in her book, "If you want to Write". Apparently, what she wrote about writing can be extended to any form of creativity or inspirational activity.
