Creativity, the act of “turning new and imaginative ideas into reality,” the “ability to perceive the world in new ways to find hidden patterns, to make connections,” “the use of imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work.” There are more definitions, but those are basics.
To me creativity is about passion, imagination, curiosity, and expression.
We’re talking about creativity all month our women’s group called Destination Me: Adventures at the Round Table. And I’m also staring 3 projects for the month of September this week.
Like I said before I’m going to re-read the Dark Tower series by Stephen King. I’m currently reading The Eyes of the Dragon, but on September 1st I’ll start reading the Gunslinger.
I’m also going to work on a projected called the Decorated Page, it’s based on the book with the same name by Gwen
Diehn. And I’m re-starting Finding Water by Julia Cameron. Not to mention I’m still participating in the #hotandsticky summer novel writing challenge. WHEW! I’m going to be such a busy creative person this upcoming month. Oh, and did I mention I’m trying to finish organizing and cleaning my writing/craft room? No, well I am.
I am really excited about the projects. If you’re following along, participating, or would like to participate please leave me a comment and let me know. Especially if you’re going to be blogging and/or vlogging about it. 😀 For me details about the projects I’ve included the video I made for YT (and the group). I hope I’ll see your comments and likes. 😀 I’m so excited about these projects.

Thanks for all you are doing to get these creative and reading and writing projects going and coordinated. I, too, believe that doing it as part of a focus group is so beneficial.
I will be following along and participating in:
– the Stephen King DARK TOWER series;
– the Julia Cameron FINDING WATER 12 week program;
– the DECORATED PAGE creativity program.
I will continue to post and comment on the Destination Me FB.
Concurrently, I am finalizing my prep-work for an ART JOURNALING WORKSHOP in the retirement “Village” community where I live. The workshop starts September 9th and runs 6 consecutive Friday’s.
Peace, Focus and Blessings,
Linda Makarewicz

Thank you for the comment. 😀 WOW! You’re busy too. 😀 I am working on the outline for Finding Water right now so I can put it in the group, and I’ll have the hard copy in my insert, and then…I’ll be posting it on here. Whew! I am also working on trying to figure out my schedule for all of this… I need to organize my time better. Working as a focus group has feedback, engagement, and makes you think, inspires and motivates you more than when you do it by yourself.
