This week I’d like to challenge as many of you as possible to write a post on your own blog specifically dedicated to THE CREATIVE PROCESS.
What ignites that flame inside you to create?
What sparks that passion inside you?
How do you channel your creativity into a finished product?
What do you do when you struggle to create?
How do you celebrate your wins?
Do you enjoy your creative process?
How do you share your creative elements with others?
Feel free to answer these questions in any way you like. Video blog, text blog, photo blog, etc. Be creative.
Let’s get linked to as many posts about creativity as we can! I’d love to see a diverse and multitudinous response to this challenge.
This week, link back to your post in the comments section OF THIS POST!
Ready! Set! Create!
Great assignment! I’m working on mine right now!
My post is entitled “God-given groove.” Hope you like it.

Not related to this post, but I just came across some good (funny and biting) church cartoons that some of you might enjoy: http://asbojesus.wordpress.com/
Hey All…I’m looking for a good visual (for promo) for our Easter weekend. Our theme is Overcome (like the New Life song of the same name). Any thoughts?
Here is my post concerning the Creative Spring Project. I enjoyed reading Shawn’s post!

Here’s a link to my reflections on your challenge Russ. I hope you all enjoy my take on being creative in the ebb and flow of everyday life with the everyday simple things I need to accomplish each day.

Here we go. Now I gott read all of yours too
Defining the Process
Mine is not a post – but a page (with sub-pages!)
i have been less than creative with my initial topic of personal health ( my motivation is not meting my intended levels there lately) But this is an effort to express and to be more creative with a passion – Photography.
Hence the page is titled:
http://lovewillbringustogether.wordpress.com/photography/
it looks sort of ok but for it to be exactly how i wanted it i need a few tips on HTML and creating tables or formatting a page so pictures appear where they look best, not just where wordpress insists on putting them.
So if there are any html’ers out there – feel free to comment/link

Will try to find time to write in the next couple of days. But been so caught up with work, South Africa planning and a collaborative creation called ‘The Art of Joy’ (may have mentioned it a few times – sorry about that!) has been taking up a lot of energy over last couple of months.
latest part of it though has been our twitter feed which I’m doing

Been challenging but lots of fun!

Ya know, there may be a day where I have something to add to these creative questions, but I rest comfortably knowing it’s not today

. One of these days I will complete my host transfer and get out of the dreaded “bluehost-isms”, but it’ll be up eventually and I trust you’ll find it under the Saturday Success category
