This book report started as a way to remember the parts of Jenny's book that most resonated with me. Unexpectedly and over time, the project evolved.  This is a process project, chronicling the attempts I made to cultivate a creative practice where I did not have one. My goal is to make the work of exercising attention and practicing creativity more accessible - to insist that creativity is not precious, to insist that everyone is capable of it and that creative output can be centered on curiosity, reciprocity and care rather than on cults of personality - or even originality - for that matter. 

I think this project has to do with being an amateur (from the Latin amare meaning "to love") and celebrating that. I loved working on this project. I worked on this project for no other reason than that I wanted to. I hope you like it.
