 “The fatal misconception behind brainstorming is that there is a particular script we should all follow in group interactions...The most creative spaces are those which hurl us together. It is the human friction that makes the sparks.”--Jonah Lehrer

"Here is to dressing to impress and committing to the capital A art form, to deviating from the predictable norm, to writing satisfying words that cold spells warm, weathering the writer's block storm, for there is, indeed, any port in a brainstorm and not just dropping your words in a linear flow, but attacking all of the audience's senses with a lyrical swarm!" Cheers brother Art!

Remember: "It is only in the vast, black dark you just might glean a spark and use that illumination to add elation to the bleak, the dim, the stark."
