Creativity and Originality

This week has been more good than bad. On Tuesday morning, I caught a minor cold, so I was not bed-ridden or anything like that. However, sickness makes it difficult to get writing, editing and all that other stuff going. Despite that, the good outweighed the bad.

On Thursday night, I went to see Cirque du Soleil: Luzia, and it was amazing. The creativity that they utilize was something else, and it surprised me to see what people can do with something like a whistle, or a soccer ball, etc. Then, on Saturday, I went to WonderCon in Anaheim and cosplayed as Bruce Lee from Game of Death. Once again the creativity there was off the charts. There were a good amount of artists, and they put their own spin on a certain character, series, etc.

In a sense, that’s what I’m doing with my own stories. Everything has been done in some way or another, but everyone has their own take, and I think that’s where the originality comes into play. This week, I got to see a lot of that.
