The new issue of Where Women Create, which is another wonderful Stampington and Company publication is now out!
The tag line describes what this fun magazine is about; inspiring work spaces of extraordinary women.
If you love to be inspired by creative women and get a glimpse at what they are doing and where they work, you’ll love this magazine. It is full of beautiful color photographs of studios and work spaces of others who love to create.
I love that it also opens up ideas and possibilities to be inspired about what other artists, designers, and creative women do.
This is the cover of the August 2010 issue which features Amy Barickman, Amy Butler, Jo Packham, , Kelly Rae Roberts, and many others.
I’m looking forward to savoring my copy!
Sometimes all you need is a different perspective to get some good ideas.
Think Backwards
In the early 60’s the FCC was concerned that some of the quiz shows had supplied contestants the answers (remember the movie the Quiz Show?)
Julann and Merv Griffin were on a plane to New York and she suggested that they give the contestants the answers and they guess the questions. They had their concept of the show by the time the plane landed. Jeopardy has been on the air since 1962.
Begin with the End
Think about what you want to accomplish and write down the end result as if it has happened.
For example, let’s say you want to write a book.
Write a book from the end or write the back cover first with the kinds of quotes people would say about your book which gives you insight into what you want to write.
What are you working on now? How might you start at the end?
P.S. In case you are wondering, the photo was taken at a wonderful garden design show we went to when we were in France a couple years ago and it is an etched shovel.
