Book review - The Creative Act - a way of being by Rick Rubin

I fell in love with this book seeing it in a fantastic bookshop - Astors in Devon earlier this year. Apart from the beautifully sized hardback grey linen cover, the black soft end papers, and then the font (sigh) and the short chapter spacious layout…oh I could go on! But of course it is actually the content that I’ve found incredibly (and it almost seems trite to use this word) inspiring. It’s Rick’s authentic thoughts on what it means to be creative in everyday life. He calls each of the 78 chapters ‘areas of thought’ 
And here are a few of the titles…the source of creativity, self doubt, distraction, seeds, momentum, the ecstatic, a whisper out of time, harmony. 
Although Rick Rubin’s career has been as a musician this is not the focus of the book -more that if you make the creative act part of your everyday life you’ll find yourself enriched in so many ways. A lot of the content I agreed with - and perhaps already knew somehow but it made me think still and is written in such a beautifully succinct way  - it is a song to the act of creating and I know you would love it. 
P.S. oh and did I mention there’s a section at the back for writing your own notes? Fabulous.
