With many, many examples, this book richly demonstrates that we do not create in a vacuum but internalize, are influenced by, and build on the inspirations of others. In the process of so doing, we discover our own voices, breaking through fear and anxiety and finding the courage to create. Here, the break-through technique of clustering, developed by Dr. Rico, is expanded into new strategies, supported by experiment and theory, quotes by writers and researchers in support of her argument, and many samples of Re-creations.
