"Thinkertoys" Author Michael Michalko Interview
July-2-2009
"Use what talents you have."
I am so inspired today after reading Molly Anderson-Childers' interview with creativity expert and author Michael Michalko (www.creativethinking.net). Michalko has an impressive work resume, having worked with NATO and CIA think tanks, fortune 500 companies, and authoring several books on creativity, but it's page 4 of the interview that really gets to my heart.

Molly asks, "What inspires you?" To which Michael responds with a story about his Godfather John Haffich and a poem he wrote for Michael that he's carried around in his wallet ever since. I'll let you read the details in the interview, but it truly impresses the important lesson about not letting fears of inadequacies about our creative skills and talents to render us silent. Listen to the birds. •

 

Amy Lloyd's Refrigerator Project: Call for Submissions
Reposted June-30-2009
Refrigerator Photo Book to Feed the Hungry
I received this e-mail from actress Amy Lloyd with the request to spread the word about her philanthropic project:

"I am creating a coffee table photo book of what is on people's refrigerators. The fridge is universally utilitarian, yet everyone adorns it differently and I think it is this unique piece of home art. Anyway, I need donated digital photos of peep's fridges, so I can fashion this book AND all proceeds from the sale of these books will go to feeding the hungry. Maybe I can't feed all of Africa, but this is my small artistic project that will feed someone in need. I hope you will help. Many thanks. All photos can be sent to me."
