pickI finally finished this one but I‘ll definitely be coming back to it again and again. It‘s probably my favorite design book so far as it connects two of my passions: (obviously) design and stories. There were so many books and articles referenced that my TBR list just got bigger, and there were countless practice exercises and prompts to get the creative juices flowing. I‘m excited to give them a try! Continued in comments ⬇️
“…our gaze is drawn to points of intrigue, from a dark hole in the middle of the road to a black cat lurking in the shadows. Humans instinctively look for novelty and surprise, because any shift in what we see could be a source of danger or delight.”
“Narrative helps us shuttle between representation and experience, between cultural convention and embodied, felt response.”
I‘ve been so hyper-focused on my health & fitness goals that my creative/professional goals have kinda fallen by the wayside. So, to get motivated, I decided my next nonfiction read should be design related. Inspiration awaits (I hope)…
I was super down last week after catching COVID for the first time and having to isolate from my family… so I got some books to cheer myself up lol. One of my goals for this year is to read more design books (I‘m currently studying Graphic Design). I‘m really excited about these three!

This book contained so many literary allusions to other texts- love when I find those connections.
