My thanks to those who added some suggestions to help me ensure that the book I

am currently compiling has everything in it you, as a creative artist, might wish to find.

“Coffee and Camomile Tea” is a book which has come out of my ongoing CGO

Surgeries designed to stimulate and sooth creative artists on their life journey.

I will check the first draft and make sure it has some/all/and more of this:

* Thoughts on signs of compulsive under-earning.

* Authentic voices of my age who have helped to solve, or have gone through, my

problems.

* A bit of the wisdom from the “Crap Art Manifesto”, the 80-20 rule, and “Great is the

enemy of Good”.

* How to motivate yourself as a singular creative

* Practical daily tools to keep discipline and ward off demons

* How to trust yourself and like after having putting the work in.

* Pop-up Pages….NOT SURE ABOUT THIS ONE…MAY NEED THE READER TO

IMAGINE OR MAKE THEMSELVES.

* Answer “What right or entitlement do I have to do this”?

* How to expect to make a living

* Nice Pictures…OK BUT I AM ALSO LEAVING PLENTY OF WHITE SPACE SO

YOU CAN DRAW YOUR OWN.

* Justification

Thank you so much. I will welcome many more comments and reminders of things that

you want to find in the index and in the book. Email me: [email protected] and add

comments here also.

Looking forward to carving some time/space to work on the 2nd draft and use your

really helpful additions.

Cheers

Chris
