Skip to the Fun Parts

A book about creativity for anyone who's ever looked at a blank sheet of paper and felt bad. Like you, syndicated cartoonist Dana Maier wants a creativity shortcut-a magical fairy who will both come up with brilliant ideas and grant the energy and discipline to churn them out. This book is not that magical shortcut-you won't find stirring literary quotes or a foolproof system for sparking inspiration here-but it does provide commiseration, jokes, and comics about the often-painful act of creating something.Skip to the Fun Partsis a book for those of us who ever wanted a shortcut to being creative and realized, sadly, that there was none, but decided to give it a try anyway.
