Have you ever felt burdened by your creativity?

Does it sometimes seem like your greatest gift – the ability to make something from nothing – might also crush you?

If you’re looking to outgrow the curse, to shake your demons, to free yourself from the struggles which follow all budding creative people…

This isn’t the book for you.

Because this book isn’t about learning to reverse the curse. It’s about learning to live with it.

What if loneliness is not to be defeated, but welcomed as an incredible source of power and inspiration? What if what makes you an outcast is not also makes you unique? What if your demons are there to PROVIDE you with the creative confidence needed, and not rob you of it? 

You aren’t just being dramatic. Doubt, fear, shame, procrastination these are all part of The Creative’s Curse. It’s a real thing.

But despite what you’ve been told – It isn’t a bad thing.

Pick up one of the best creative manifestos available today, and stop running from the very phenomenon which will fuel your creativity for years to come.


The Creative Curse Find the Creative Confidence to Walk with Your Demons edition by Todd Brison Jon Westenberg Arts Photography eBooks

I used to write a personal development blog ( lovelifepractice.com ) and so I have read a lot of books on creativity, on "doing what you love", on this kind of subject. To be honest, buying this book was more out of solidarity than interest.

I put off reading it for a long time.

When I did finally pick it up, a few hours ago, I read it from start to finish. I chuckled a lot, I highlighted a lot, I made mental notes about where I had similar experiences and succeeded and where I could see my missteps thanks to Todd's examples.

This is a GOOD book, regardless of whether you're trying to break out of a corporate cage or just develop your own soul a bit more. He lays out solid, actionable things you can do, and wraps it all in an overarching message from the front lines. "This is what it's like," he explains, "and this is why it's worth it, and here's why you can do it."

With the possible exception of Pressfield's "The War of Art" (which Todd also agrees is the creative's bible) this is now the first book I would recommend to people who want to try being more creative. It's well worth the time, and absurdly worth the money. I plan on going back and culling a few of my highlighted passages as my own kickstarters when the muse is distant.

Highly recommended. READ THIS BOOK.

The Creative Curse Find the Creative Confidence to Walk with Your Demons edition by Todd Brison Jon Westenberg Arts Photography eBooks Reviews


Great book. At times it does feel like it is geared toward a very small subset of creative people (bloggers), but I think that others can still get something out of reading it. The writing style is engaging and fun, and it is informative without feeling preachy (or like a self-help book). Overall, I would definitely recommend reading this book!
Hi Todd

I read your book over two nights. It's pulled me through a tough part of whether to quit a job I enjoy or take off to become a freelancer. Thank you. Tom Briant
It's great how somebody can get in your head like that and voice out your thoughts. It's hard to be creative in a world where everything gets measured. But it is so necessary and something we can't live without and that is what this book is about. It's not cheesy, it's raw and authentic, it's vulnerable. It reminds us that our creativity is ok, that we should express no matter what. It's not about money or fame, we just have to do it. It's like breathing. Thank you Todd, for writing this book. It is a pleasure having it in my collection of books to go back to )
With love,
Fom one creative to another
I don't think I can write a review for The Creative's Curse that will do the book justice.

I absolutely love it. Simply put.

It seems like a fast read at first (with all the delightful bite-sized chapters) but the more I poured over the book, the more I had to stop and think about my creative journey. At times it reminds me of the sobering reality that accompanies the creative life, and at other moments it gives me hope for the future (not just my future but everyone's!).

Todd is a brilliant writer and an even better human being. His passion for helping others achieve their creative dream is palpable.

Pick up this book and read it today. It's the best $5 you can spend on !
Todd Brison is the only writer I know who can make an analogy between writing a book, running a marathon, and playing Super Mario 3--and, on top of that, make the comparison seem totally logical.

The Creative's Curse is an excellent read for anyone that has ideas but doesn't know where to go from there. Brison offers stupendous suggestions for grappling with the life of a Creative; in short passages, he discusses how to overcome fear of creating, how to surmount creators' block, and why your contributions matter in a world already bursting with content.

He writes in a way that makes you feel like you're reading something bright and fun, then hits you out of nowhere with some serious truth. I read this book in two sittings (I lost track of how many times I said "just one more section"), and I can't wait to go back and reexamine the passages I highlighted throughout.

I'll leave you with this gem from the portion on Creators' Block caused by fear "I haven't tested every human being on the planet, but my guess is that Creatives are among the MOST fearful. This is because back in early humanity, it was difficult to fend off a lion with a paintbrush."
There's nothing wrong with Todd Brison. Or his delivery. Or his material.

It's just that I've heard it all before - and better said.

If you're a student of the genre, you'll recognize Steven Pressfield (whom Brison cites), Julia Cameron, Ann LaMotte, Steven King and dozens of other authors who have written on the art of writing. You'll also hear Tony Robbins and other well-known motivational speakers.

In short, Brison has done an excellent job of compiling the thoughts and words of others. The problem is that he comes across to me as in authentic. His resume compared to those he is excerpting and incorporatiing is very thin and, thus, he strikes me as inauthentic. Ultimately, I felt like he was setting me up for a sales pitch, which in fact, seems to be the case. Visit his website to see what I mean.

At this point, I find him boring, so I'm not going to bother readiing more digests of what others have said.

I don't doubt that Brison has an audience I'm just not part of it. Some, perhaps even many, may find his words inspiring I don't. I'm just reminded of those who said those things first.

Motivational books are funny. I may find one that I consider truly inspiring - like any of Steven Pressfield's works - and find another flat and dull, even though he is repeatiing some of Pressfield's advice.

Anyway, I took a chance, spent a few bucks and don't think Brison has anything to offer. Your reaction might be totally different. Live on the wild side spend a few bucks to find out.
