Creating for your own pleasure - whether you're writing a novel, composing songs, or painting a landscape - can seem pointless. It's tempting to focus on pursuing money and fame rather than the process itself. But as Srini Rao warns, creating then turns into a chore that can harm your self-esteem and suck the pleasure out of life rather than being a source of joy.

For thousands of years, there has been a cycle: a Demon King rises and conquers, and a Hero is reborn a hundred years later to defeat him. Each time, civilizations are ground to dust beneath the Demon King's hordes, but humanity has remained secure in the belief that a Hero of legend will always save them. There's just one slight problem. It's only been 23 years since the Demon King's latest rise, and this time, he's already conquered more than half the world. If humanity simply waits for the Hero's return, there may be no world left for him to save.

The history of philosophy has been a predictably tragic or comical succession of palliatives for human disquiet. Thinkers from Spinoza to Berdyaev have pursued the perennial questions of how to be happy, how to be good, how to be loved, and how to live in a world of change and loss. But perhaps we can learn more from cats - the animal that has most captured our imagination - than from the great thinkers of the world. In Feline Philosophy, the philosopher John Gray discovers in cats a way of living that is unburdened by anxiety and self-consciousness....

Embrace This Book!
Whether you’re already a fan of Felicia Day or not, this book is sure to be a delight - the audiobook especially so, thanks to the author’s engaging performance as reader. In fact, if you’re torn between the physical book and the audiobook, I highly suggest opting for the audiobook. It comes with a 42-page printable PDF of activities and illustrations referenced throughout the book, and it is suggested that you keep a notebook handy for some exercises. So, what exactly is this book? It’s an enthusiastic guide to exploring your creative side, not being bogged down by self-doubt or criticism, feeling proud of the things you make, and never giving up. And it’s read so incredibly enthusiastically, that it makes you want to get out there and do! I myself went straight through without actually doing the activities/exercises, knowing that I will be giving this a second listen, at which time I will be doing them. But I could even see myself giving it further listens down the road, as its whole approach is like a friend you can turn to when you’re in a creative rut. The author’s narrative style is casual, often comical, and endlessly charming, and the information she conveys is well-researched, expertly assembled, and endlessly helpful at sparking (and maintaining) creativity, and feeling good about yourself. It’s clear that she put a lot of time, effort, and heart into this book, and I cannot imagine it being any better than it is.

Great, but the audiobook isn’t ideal.
As much as I love Felicia Day’s frenetic narration and enthusiasm, this is a workbook and the pdf is necessary if you don’t have the paperback. It’s not the sort of book you listen to while driving or at the gym, so it really makes more sense to read a hard copy.

But I applaud her efforts. She’s cute. Kind of a stand up in print. Still might be better read than listened to. There were so many suggested exercises that were lost by listening during commute.

Self help for embracing your weirdness
I say this lovingly because I was *smitten* with this book right from the introduction. This journal + quest + finding yourself journey is a MUST for anyone looking for the next step in life, the next "how do I start" mission, the next, " I really want to..." - if you are stuck, not sure where to begin or plague yourself with self doubt... stop it! Pick up this book or do the audio, because Felicia is hilarious and I could listen to her all day and now I want to be her bff even more, and stop beating yourself up! EMBRACE YOUR WEIRD YA WEIRDO and go forth into the world knowing you are awesome and whatever it is that you want to do next, is needed. I loved this book even if I didn't qpply all the excercises now, I know I will refer to this one often! This is the ultimate self help book served up nerd style. You will not regret!

Inspriring - Awesome! Will share with my 10yr old!
Loved it. This book has inspired me to create more and more. I listened to it and did not complete the pdf of exercises, I plan to go through it with my 10 yr old. Felicia Day explains away issues I have felt all of my life. it has even given me a newfound courage to join a book club and tell them that I I pretty much only listen to audiobooks - it's the way that I consume books. That is what I am drawn to and should stand up for myself instead of being a closet audiobook listener. ha!

disapointed
I head this book through audible, where it was read by Felicia her self, and that might have influenced my opinion. This is a book where Felicia Day is rambling on and regurgitating motivational posters and self-help ideas. I got halfway through the book, and I felt that the amount of original thoughts was to low to have paid the full price for this book. I loved "you are never wierd on the internet" but I don't like this one
