August 2006 Journal
Interviewed
by 52 Projects Author Jeffrey Yamaguchi
By Chris Dunmire, Publisher
If you're interested in reading about what prompted
me to start the Creativity Portal Web site, how I balance my work with my
creative projects, and how my personal view of creativity has evolved over
the years, you'll enjoy the interview I recently had with Jeffrey Yamaguchi,
author of the book
52 Projects: Random Acts of Everyday Creativity.
The
interview is
published on Jeffrey's 52 Projects Web site.
I want to thank Jeffrey for the opportunity to answer his many thought-provoking
questions about my work with the Creativity Portal Web site. It's my desire that
the site continues to inspire others to courageously explore, express, and enjoy
their own creativity.
