Writer Elizabeth Gilbert: A different way to think about creative genius

I know I'm late to the table in discovering this wonderful site, TED (Ideas worth spreading) but, I'm so glad I found it now.

It's a great medium to essentially find "master classes" on, well, that which makes us tick. Pretty cool site.

In any event, since I'd just read Elizabeth Gilbert's book, Eat, Pray, Love over "December Break" (Which is such an ironic phrase for any parent, don't you think?) and was really in in awe of how refreshing Gilbert's fearless approach to story-telling was. I found her book very inspirational in just how open she was to finding the creative process in her life.

So, naturally, since I found her book so interesting, I also found her own "master class" on the subject of fear and production of creativity equally intriguing, as well.

Thought you might too.

I'm almost done with 'Eat, Pray, Love' (she just had her first night with the guy from Brazil), and I absolutely love it!
I love her feminist message of "Be your own father and husband - be your own protector." Good advice for even a guy like me.
