This is a short book on how to become more creative. How short? The shortest that I could make it. That is also the gist of the advice offered in the book itself: to find the smallest form of your creative idea that you can complete with the skills and resources you already have. There is a bunch of other advice, in fact 25 pithy essays of it. Those essays will help you get started, keep going, silence your inner critic, and get to the end of your creative endeavours. It took me about a week to write the book, but 50 years for me to understand and start to use the principles within.
