In order to facilitate a discussion on creativity, I'll pose 3 main questions, along with some other clarifying questions. We will also be referencing the book Steal Like an Artist by Austin Kleon.
1) What feeds your creativity?
2) What hinders your creativity?
3) What sorts of changes are needed in order to correct or eliminate the hindrances and/or how can a better creative environment be formed and nurtured?
What books have you read on creativity? Share your own bibliography. Here's mine in order of most recent first:
