QUESTION OF THE DAY: What is your biggest obstacle for living a creative life?…
QUESTION OF THE DAY: What is your biggest obstacle for living a creative life?
Dear Ones –
I am working on a book right now about creativity.
A small book, a guidebook, a (hopefully) helpful book.
It is largely drawn from conversations we've had on this Facebook page, and from encounters that I've had with many of you in person when I am out on the road. Let me put it simply: I want to help you.
Creativity has always been a source of uncomplicated joy for me, but I know that it is not a source of uncomplicated joy for everyone. I know that many of you suffer and struggle to express yourselves, to believe in your work, to put yourself forward. I know that many of you feel blocked, tormented, stuck, afraid.
What I want to ask you today, quite earnestly, is this — what is holding you back from living your most creative life, more than anything? If you could identify ONE THING that is stopping you from the fullest expression of your imagination, what would you name it?
Will you let me know, if you feel comfortable doing so?
Will you share this with your friends, and ask them?
I ask all this because I want to make sure, with this new book, that I address all your questions, all your fears, all your blockages. Or at least that I try to — as well and thoroughly as I can.
Because: ART.
ONWARD,
LG

Dear Liz, I know this is a long shot, but I NEED the word to get out, and you've got so many amazing, kindhearted fans of your brilliant stories; looking particularly at any in the New York City area that might just read this post and share in order to help find a missing person.
My sister, @[1388400004:2048:Alex Silvestri], is missing. She recently (this past week) took a trip to the Brooklyn area and made it there, last we heard. She has not been heard from since this past Friday morning or seen by the person she was staying with since this past Monday. We are very worried about her, as she is new to the city and traveled alone without much money or consistent mode of communication. A police report has been filed, but there is not much that can be done because she is not a resident of the city itself. I have posted a somewhat recent photo; there are more on her facebook page. Please share this and PLEASE contact me if you have seen her or have been in contact with her. Thank you.
Katie Silvestri, Buffalo region — with Alex Silvestri.
