Making Fun A Habit Series
30 days to add fun to your creative practice. I will be going through Mike Brennan's Make Fun A Habit workbook and help you make fun a habit. I had the pleasure of interviewing Mike on my other podcast Find A Podcast About and talking about his podcast Creative Chats. This workbook leads you through steps to rekindle the fun in your life and get you in a space where you are your most creative. This is a 30-day book and I will be tackling each day as if it were a week and providing you insights on how you can use his ideas in your creative practice. Each chapter is broken up with a short story, questions to ponder, action items, and tips.
In this episode of the Create Art Podcast, host Timothy Kimo Brien discusses the importance of making creativity enjoyable and habitual, inspired by Michael Brennan's book 'Making Fun a Habit.' Timothy shares insights from over 30 years of experience in arts and education to help listeners tame their inner critic and create more frequently.
