Summary: Mysteries of the mind revealed.
Review: When Dr. Susan K. Perry's book, WRITING IN FLOW: the Keys to Enhanced Creativity, first hit the stacks, I knew I'd struck gold. Finally, a book offering an in-depth study of a subject, whose mysteries elude most artists. The day it arrived, I curled under my afghan with a mug of cocoa and found myself hooked from page one. It's safe to say I read in flow. I tuned out my singing cockatiel, Howie Birdell, and ignored the pleading eyes of my sheltie, Rudy, who simply wanted a game of tug. I hope they forgave me. Dr. Perry researched and compiled interviews with more than 75 accomplished writers, asking them to probe their brains and describe their feelings about the creative process. Dr. Perry's diligent research paid off. Through her book, I learned how the pros handle writer's block, how they deal with distractions, how they wave their own pom-poms for self-motivation. For me, WRITING IN FLOW isn't a one-time read. I'll refer to it often because the many ideas offered throughout the book deserve time and reflection. I'm sure I'll learn new concepts to apply to my writing every time I read it. If you're interested in exploring the mysteries of creativity, then this book will expand your horizons, too, and help you maximize your potential.
