It’s not always easy to be creative – to give your mind space to roam while ignoring your inner critic, to stare down a blank page and make the leap from nothing to anything. It takes courage.

Finding the courage to create is something the editors of Flow know a lot about. Creativity is a central value of the Flow mission, evident in every issue that bursts with the wild imaginations of its artists, writers, and editors. In Creativity Takes Courage, Flow brings together inspiration, hands-on projects, boundary pushing activities, and special paper goodies to show readers how to unleash their inner artist.

Organised around a series of twelve “dares” – including Dare to Fail, Dare to Be a Kid, Dare to Be Bored, Dare to Go Offline, Dare to Collaborate – Creativity Takes Courage encourages you to be fully present . . . and spend idle time staring out the window. To leave your comfort zone and start a project, without hesitation . . . and nourish yourself with museum visits and reading time. Each dare includes fill-in pages to go deeper into what hinders or motivates you, like prompts to help identify fears of failure, or a pullout Dare to Commit notebook for recording both daily and weekly projects. It’s the illustrated and fully interactive gift of how to live more creatively and enjoy every minute of the process, no matter what the result.
