Had a vision, once, of a beating heart radiating green light, and surrounded by thorns and vines. Finally tried to create it in Photoshop. Here is a larger version.

This January, Let Your Inner Artist Loose
This January 25th, 2012, at Unity of Fayetteville, I’ll be creating an Artist’s Way Creative Cluster. This 12 week process is based on Julie Cameron’s best selling The Artist’s Way: A Spiritual Path to Higher Creativity. For those of you unfamiliar with The Artist’s Way, it began with author Julia Cameron sharing her ideas with [...]
HELP !
When you look at any successful person, be they a writer, artist, CEO, soldier, mother, or father, each one will tell you that they got where they are today because of guidance or help from someone. Maybe a teacher, tutor, parent, partner, or mentor. Did you know not everyone knows how to ask for help? [...]
Everything is Amazing and Nobody is Happy
I saw this viral video a while back and I uncovered it again recently and I’m stunned at how true it rings. Louis CK is a riot, regardless, and I must be close to the same age since I get all his references. Watch the video and I’ll continue. . . . . . . [...]
The Hero’s ‘Spiritual’ Journey (and Other Dreams)
My first ‘sermon’ (although we refer to them as messages) held at Unity of Fayetteville on October 16, 2011. Rita Graham was a guest singer and with Annette Olsen (the Music Director), they created amazing versions of One Moment in Time AND To Dream the Impossible Dream. (I’ll see if it’s okay to post those [...]
“I Heard the News Today, Oh boy…”
I’m sitting here, writing this post on my MacBook while listening to some music from iTunes on my iPod headphones with sadness and gratitude in my heart. I’m sure I’m only one of hundreds, if not thousands, of people writing about Steve Jobs passing today. And I found out about it from a text message [...]
Fall of the Tower of Babel
So, occasionally, I “feel” or “sense” patterns. Whether it’s divine, awareness, psychosis, or whatever, I don’t know. With the release of Facebook’s “Translate” button, we’re on the verge of the world becoming a place of mutual understanding through communication, common goals of ’green’ movements, peaceful actions, sustainable living goals throughout the world, and people taking [...]
Review: The Creative Habit by Twyla Tharp
While Twyla Tharp is a dancer, her life is all about creativity. And in this book she breaks down all the aspects of living a creative life, the struggles, joys, and accidents along the way. This book brought the soul of the class, I taught, to life.
How Not to Start a Trend
I realize I may be one of the few to not watch the Super Bowl this year. And even the lure of the commercials didn’t get me to watch. However, I did check in on Hulu.com a few minutes ago and catch up on the highest rated commercials this year. And, to my suprise, was [...]
A Zombie Moment with Bacon
I’ve decided to start writing more random thoughts. I actually spoke some random thoughts and actually got my amazing partner to throw out some of her own ideas. I told her I would creatively write a short column about zombies and bacon. She asked, “Like, zombies that eat bacon?” She got all excited and added, [...]
The World Will NOT End in 2012
“How can you be so certain, Eric? There are signs EVERYWHERE!” people gasp and stare at me like I’m a complete idiot.
Let me just say that I’ve lived through dozens of “end-of-the-world” scenarios
Ad Agencies: Adapt or Perish
Okay, that may have been harsh. Just read a cool article over at Mashable.com about “The Future of Ad Agencies and Social Media.” And it verfies what I’ve been seeing and experiencing myself. With innovation and collaboration happening so fast, creatives and strategists have to really stretch to use all the tools in ways to [...]

Speaking my mind about movies, tv, writing, travel and creativity in life and business.
