Book Description
"Joy is everywhere around us. Suzanne Falter-Barns teaches each of us how to reach out and grab some... I love this book!" -- Laurie Beth Jones, author of Jesus CEO, The Path, and Grow Something Besides Old

If you are a writer who's not writing, an entrepreneur who keeps stalling with the big idea, or anyone who just can't get on with the work of their dreams, this is the book for you. In fresh, funny language amply laced with wisdom, How Much Joy Can You Stand? demystifies the creative process and gives you the inspirational kick in the pants you've been waiting for.

Inside is all the reassurance and encouragement you need to get going and keep going. Stories, anecdotes, and the author's own hard-won wisdom tell the simple truth about creating your dream -- that it's not as hard as you think, and you do, indeed, know exactly what you need to know.

Find out where to find inspiration, how to handle rejection, whether talent really matters, and how to stick with your work even in the face of couch potato attacks and complete creative meltdown. Hands-on exercises follow each short, pungent chapter to put you back on track towards achieving your goals.

Sit down with How Much Joy Can You Stand? You will be moved to action.
