Barbara O’Connor, author of the fabulous How to Steal a Dog, has a great blog post which refers to a great short movie.
Brent Barson’s short film F is for Fail is the story of one person’s creative roller coaster, told through type in an evocative A to Z.
Barbara’s favorite letter was P. Mine? My favorite letter was T.
Check out the movie and find your favorite letter of the creative process.
A, D and P all apply to me and my writing, but my favorite was P.
Perhaps these letters apply to all we hope to fulfill in life, and not just the “creative process” per se…My favorite are B for “break through”,O for “overcome”,P for “persevere”, V for “vanquish”, and of course…F for “failure”. We all need to fail so that we can learn from our mistakes…and of course get even better. And so it goes…..
