Synopsis

Creative Visualization for Writers is designed so that readers can pick up the book and use it for a day, a week or a month – whatever time frame works for them. They can pick and choose from more than 150 interactive exercises, which include everything from stormwriting and coloring, to drawing and diagramming. With so much variety, every writer will find numerous exercises that speak to them. And they can use the book over and over again whenever they need inspiration, relaxation, a way to work on or bring an idea into the world, or a creative boost. The book provides a prescription any time the reader feels stuck, stressed, low energy, frustrated, lacking in confidence, or simply experiences a light bulb go on for a new idea―or needs a light bulb to go on.

By using the book in this way, readers will change their ways of looking at themselves, their works-in-progress and their ability to make those creative dreams realities. They will emerge with a new perspective, new habits, and many new ideas and goals designed to enhance or move forward their writing careers.

The book will be divided into five primary sections, including self-exploration, goals, creativity, visualization, and focus. Working through these sections will help writers to:

• Improve creativity by using both the right and left side of the brain.
• Ideate with ease.
• Relax with coloring therapy.
• Gain clarity about themselves and their creative goals.
• Focus on ideas and how to get from inspiration to manifestation.
• Use affirmations and visualization to help make dreams and ideas reality.
• Find joy in the creative process.
