From My Brain Squeezers to Robert Alan Black's CRE8ING Challenges

Here's a creativity tips resource you won't want to miss!

I received a nice email from Robert Alan Black, one of the foremost creativity experts in the world, who has signed up for my Brain Squeezers auto-responder series. He let me know about his own series of creativity tips and I wanted YOU to know about them too because Alan is one of the big daddies of the whole 'creativity movement' and he has got an incredible FREE resource for you to benefit from...

Dear Alan,
 
Thank you for your email. It's great to hear from you again.
 
Wow, what a huge resource.
 
I think I've done about 50 Brain Squeezers so far -- a puny effort compared to your phenomenol output. I'll be sure to let my readers know about your work so they can escalate their learning to the higher levels.
 
Warmest Regards,
Wily
