Creativity breeds creativity

A fascinating thing happens over the years as one’s writing improves. The creative function grows and explodes and the creativity gleaned in writing bleeds over into other aspects of life. Ideas grow and spread like dandelions.  New ideas spring up for new books, new ways to promote one’s work, new ideas for book covers. And it seems like by feeding and watering the creative garden in one’s brain it spreads basic creativity into other arts and crafts, and you might take up oil painting to paint an idea or sketching to illustrate your next book. It is an amazing process.
