I wrote a book!
My book is officially live.
As someone who “doesn’t get excited about things enough,” I have to tell you, turning all that work into a real, hold-in-your-hands physical book feels pretty great.
It’s called The Case for More Bad Ideas, and it’s a counterintuitive guide to creativity that will change how you think about ideas.
Fresh ideas and original stories about creativity, all in one practical guide.
Here’s an awesome quote from New York Times best-selling author Jay Baer about the book:
“A quintessentially modern guide to unlocking your latent creativity. The Case for More Bad Ideas is a rarity: equal parts inspirational, motivational, and actionable. Highly recommended!”
And some amazing endorsements from my generous beta readers:
“Enormously encouraging, has made me a hero at work.”
“I didn't know how badly I needed to read this book until I started it, and then I couldn't put it down.”
“Finally, something that is relatable as a creative.”
It’s been a labor of love, and I can’t wait for you to read it.
