The Shape of Ideas: An Illustrated Exploration of Creativity | 
This made me smile this morning (especially the shoot for the stars panel) so I thought I‘d share!
“This Year
I will dream big.
I will follow my heart.
I will face my fears.
I will find my true self.
I will rise above all obstacles.
I will shoot for the stars.
I will live with no regrets.
I won‘t let anything stand in my way.”

pickI‘m not really the creative type but I still enjoyed this. I would recommend this to writers, artists, etc and it would be a great addition to a classroom library to get and keep kids‘ creative juices flowing.
There were a few coffee cameo appearances which, of course, I loved.
3.5 ⭐️ for me

Oh the quandary we survive through!
This is a panel from Grant Snider's 'Ode to an unfinished book'. Check the full comic here - https://www.newyorker.com/humor/daily-shouts/ode-to-an-unfinished-book
Stuck in several worlds.
I just saw someone post this to Facebook--now I definitely need this book. I think these stages are pretty accurate so far! I've recently entered Stage 8! 😆
Every individual does.
Sorry for spamming so many posts, haha, but I figured I'd get all my book-related thoughts out now.
"The Shape of Ideas" by Grant Snider is the other book I'm currently reading.
For those of you who don't know, I'm a graphic designer (a struggling, college graduate, millennial graphic designer, ha) and I've been in SUCH a creative slump recently. But this book is helping me get out of it and I truly recommend!! ?✨
Isn't this great? The whole book is filled with delightful illustrations about the power --and anxiety-- of creativity.
What stage are you at? I'm split between hoarding books like a dragon and sharing them with my three year old. (Source: incidentalcomics.tumblr.com)
pickSimple illustrations bring to life the obstacles we face and hopefully overcome throughout the creative process.⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
