I love, love, love this book by Wichita author Grant Snider. His creativity and ability to capture ephemeral feelings is delightful! I would mark this as a favorite (and maybe I should) but I can't wait to read his other books, and I suspect I will be even more inclined to call them "favorites."

I received this book as an Advanced Reading Copy from the publisher in return for an honest review. This has not impacted on my opinion.
This could be a nice gift for any creative types, people in need of inspiration and/or fuel to keep their creativity going.
Some concepts I personally thought he depicted brilliantly. For example nocturnal ideas and inspiration and "How to Climb a Hill". Some comics I thought were a missed opportunity, like "Message to a Graduate". And many I thought were just cute, quirky, won a giggle from me just because of their simple punnyness (see "The Art of Living"). Unfortunately, even more of the comics I felt just didn't have much point, or I just confused me.
Again, a nice gift for those in the creative field, they likely would get more from it then I did.

Somewhat interesting exploration of creativity and ideas, and I like his illustration style. But the strained poetry becomes a bit much after a while, and the end feels like he was struggling to get ideas of his own. He seemed to channel that frustration into writing about how difficult it is to come up with ideas, which, frankly, is just boring.
