A Creative Journey 2004
This is the index of my 2004 Inner Diablog entries.
Highlights include having pieces of my first interview published
in Imagine magazine, collaborating with author Joy Sikorski,
and meeting creativity-inspiring author SARK. Other exciting things
are certainly on the horizon, which I will write about as soon as
they come to fruition.
I hope that you find some humor, motivation, and inspiration
through these pages as I share my journey with you — creative and otherwise. — Chris
