I believe all humans are innately creative. Every one of us is so creative that we make a new reality every day when we wake, and then several more realities each night when we dream. It’s a rare human, though, who takes the time and the pain to perfect the craft of organizing those daily, spontaneous creations into some better slice of life, something which oscillates across every other individual reality and finds a better resonance there.

I can’t teach creativity. I can teach craft.
