Creative Gifts Come In All Shapes And Sizes—Come Visit Me On The Blog Of Aprille Janes

creativity interview with Elizabeth Cottrell
June 29, 2018 by Elizabeth H. Cottrell

How honored I was to be a recent guest on Aprille Janes’s wonderful blog, where she explores the myriad ways we might cultivate our creative gifts.

Come on over and read Aprille’s interview with me—“Meet my creative friend, Elizabeth Cottrell.”  You’ll learn one of my dirty little secrets: for years, I thought I wasn’t creative or artistic. Thank goodness, I’ve come to realize that we all have creative gifts. We’ll discover them when we stop comparing ourselves with others and start being more adventuresome when that little voice urges us to write or paint or speak or sculpt or cook or sing or compose or sew or weave or carve or draw or arrange flowers or decorate a room or put together an outfit or…you get the point.
