About this Book
John Lennon once said “Life is what happens to you while you’re busy
making other plans.”
All of us had dreams of being creative when we were
young. Many of us wanted to be great artists or actors. Others…rock ’n’
roll idols. Some of us loved wood shop in high school and hoped someday
to make all our own furniture. Still others planned to write and publish
love poems.
Then
“life happened.” So many of our dreams evaporated, disappeared,
dissolved, or were shunted aside for more traditional and practical
pursuits—buried under blankets of down-to-earthism. Now, with families
raised, roots set, and careers under control, it’s time to address your
creative self.
Gene Perret, 70, author of numerous books and Bob
Hope’s chief joke writer for twelve years, knows something himself about
being creative after 50. In his warm, caring style, Perret shows the
reader the whys and hows of getting his or her sidelined creativity back
on track and does it with élan!
Perret delights the reader
with:
• Reasons to get creative
• Ways to find the time
• Suggestions of what to do
• A host of inspiring and applicable one-time project ideas
Carpe diem. Become the actor, writer, painter, craftsman you’ve
always wanted to be. Unleash your creativity!
