“Everyone is born creative; everyone is given a box of crayons in kindergarten. Then when you hit puberty, they take the crayons away… I’d like my crayons back, please.”
Hugh MacLeod – Ignore Everybody: and 39 Other Keys to Creativity
Last year (and after being a guest on several video podcasts myself), I decided I wanted to start a video podcast of my own. I’d already done a regular podcast (audio only) for a little while, but a face-to-face conversation seemed so much better. I wanted a podcast, I decided, to celebrate creativity in all its forms. I struggled with a name for it, but finally settled on “I’d Like My Crayons Back.”
Whether you’re a gardener, an author, a tailor, a baker, a painter, a musician, a woodworker, quilter, knitter, event planner, graphic designer, photographer, etc., etc., etc., you ARE a creator. You are involved in the creative process that is, essentially, life and living it.
Please note that I am no longer looking for guests to appear on the show. Feel free to watch past interviews on my YouTube Channel, however.
