Creativity comes into play in just about any field.
It\'s time to name our creative impulses, to claim them, and to squawk them from the rooftops!.
If we take the time to notice, we have much to learn from our beloved chickens, things like the value of curiosity, how we might welcome challenges in our lives, and even when to let go of perfectionism.
The creative life can be profound, but also funny, exasperating, and downright weird--much like Living with a Flock of hens.
Each chapter includes questions for journaling, next-steps-in-creativity exercises, and a sidebar from The Left-Brain Chicken, putting solid process-related steps to each chapter.
Drawing inspiration from her Flock of hens, Byle explores curiosity and courage, embracing your creative self and letting go of what holds you back, and Living well in the creative life.
She mixes quotes, stories from all kinds of creatives, and practical advice to help all of us invested in Living more creatively.
With Chicken Scratch , Ann Byle brings us good fun and meaning-making at the intersection of creative Living and our egg-laying friends.
Even though chicken-tending proved to have its own challenges, Byle discovered that her feathered friends offered surprising Lessons and inspiration for her own work, Lessons on Living creatively.
And when writer Ann Byle became a Chicken owner, she began to look at her Hens with new interest and the keen eye of an artist.
Looking at situations from different perspectives, finding new uses for old things, combining disparate ideas or ingredients or even colors--all are creative endeavors.
