What was the last book you read and what did you think of it?

Yes, I had a lot of fun... but it was also stressful because having your kids with you on vacation is not really a REAL vacation for the parents.

I don't remember the last book I read front to back cover, but last night I read exerpts from the Bible at a conference I went to - which I found applicable to my life and inspiring.  Last week I read several chapters from Van Gogh's letters... And as the first time I read it, it was very moving and endearing. The way he viewed life and people and how to love people is just so beautiful... and it is always amazing to see how he struggled with the cost of day to day living, and continued to spend so much money and time on painting even though he wasn't making any money!  The way he wrote to his brother and advised him on his health was very interesting too...

What do you do when you need to stimulate your creativity?

where the hell did you come from anyway?

For me, creativity is stimulated through just about anything so there isn't usually a void, unless I'm so tired or sick or stressed that I'm unable to do anything. Most of the time it's the other way around, I have too much creative energy and not enough time to do something with it. 

BUT when I want to focus my creativity for a certain purpose - such as designing a costume or developing a character for a story, I submerg myself in my inspiration, gathering as much resource material as I can stand and soak it all in - then I let it simmer and I rest. At some point I feel wrestless and do some brain storming or sketching - playing around with ideas that are forming to see if they'll work... this is usually where I get warmed up and stretched - then as the ideas are coming out of me, the sparks start to fly and I produce something.

I definately work best as a sprinter when it comes to creativity... I do a lot in a little bit of time, usually forgetting to eat and being bothered to do anything else, then I collapse.

I imagine the second question refers to how I got to I2, rather than this planet? ;)  Peter invited me...  ;D
