---------- Presentations and Workshops
I am currently offering the following presentations and workshops:

One-Hour Presentation
“Creativity and Self-Awareness—It’s Not What You Think”
Everyone feels the urge to create and that urge can express itself in a myriad of forms. But between the
creative urge and the created object lies the personality of the artist— where all the blocks, fears, and
problems lie. The key to freeing our creative potential is self-awareness.

One-Hour Presentation
“Successful Creativity—It’s All About Passion”
The most successfully creative people see money as a fringe benefit for doing what they love. A concern for
quality and meaning come first; the money follows afterwards.

Two-Hour Presentation
“Eight is Enough: Essential Self-Survival Skills for Creative People”
An introduction to those skills and actions necessary to release the latent creativity within.

One-Day Workshop
“Eight is Enough: Essential Self-Survival Skills for Artists”
A one-day workshop based on Eric Maisel's “Coaching the Artist Within” and supplemented by material from
other sources.  [...

You make good work by
(among other things)
making lots of work that
isn't very good.

GUARANTEE
During the first session we will set goals
for our coaching program. If at the end
of the program and after a good-faith
effort on your part we do not meet those
goals, your money will be refunded, no
questions asked.
Creative dreams will
multiply with very small
amounts of effort
applied over time.
