Customer comments on this selection.
 A dance genious shares her discipline for creativity
This is a great book for anyone who wants to cultivate the habits of good discipline that consistenly lead to creative ideas.
Great!
It's the kind of book I would want everyone to read. I want to buy a lot of copies and share them with a lot of people. I just loved it.
Twyla shares pearls from her life's creative adventure
A refreshing and inspiring glimpse into the creative habits employed by a successful artist, generously shared in a well thought out, intelligent, down-to-earth practical way. Twyla shares her personal experiences and keen observational skills in a way generalizable to nearly any creative field. A pleasure to read and re-read. Practical, not just fluff. She shares behind-the-scenes step-by-step insights into the preparation for some of her more successful projects (Movin Out, etc). Puts to bed the idea that artists are supernatural beings who simply sit still and wait for bolts of lightning to strike them with inspiration. Reading this book is highly conducive to inspiration. I bought a second copy as a gift.
Art Making and Hard Work
Twyla Tharp's "The Creative Habit" is at once inspirational and practical.
This well-known dancer guides the reader through some brass tacks of the
studio work ethic while allowing and encouraging the mind to soar.
This is an honest, no-nonsense book for all artistic disciplines.
 Creative or not, this book is for you.
This is THE book to have when you curl up with a glass of wine. The last third was especially relevant to me. It not only encouraged me to be okay with my obstacles and failures, but also it caused me to actually appreciate and celebrate them. You don't have to define yourself as "creative" to get a great deal out of this book. There's something in it for everyone.
