Every creative person hits the wall sometimes. Things Are What You Make of Them, by Adam J. Kurtz, author of 1 Page at a Time and Pick Me Up, is a handwritten, full color pep talk for those moments.
The advice is organized by topic, including how to stop comparing yourself to other creatives, how to ask for and accept help, how to get over common creative fears, and how to be happy, or at least happier. It is wry and cheeky but genuinely kind. Give it to an art lover, a designer starting out, a writer on a deadline or anyone who needs encouragement to keep making things.
