Stop staring at the blank page. The page is not the problem.We have been sold a lie about creativity: that it is a lightning strike, a divine gift, or something you learn in a classroom. We are told to sit in silence and wait for the muse.But the muse is not coming.GREAT IDEAS & Where to Find Them is a field manual from the trenches, written by a veteran storyboard artist who has spent thirty years turning vague scripts into concrete realities. This is not a textbook filled with diagrams or useless prompts. It is a linear, conversational guide to the messy, chaotic, and practical work of being creative.From the art of stealing ideas to the necessity of watching bad movies, this book strips away the pretension of Art to reveal the mechanics of the work. It is a survival guide for the long haul, designed to help you stop dreaming and start doing.Feed the beast. Trust your gut. And for God's sake, stop looking out the window.
