Last week, I was working on a prompt that involved making a list of creative heroes, past and present, then looking for patterns among them.
So here’s a list — and a chance to publicly acknowledge some people who have really influenced the way I live, think, and work.
- Brian Doyle
- Seth Godin
- Mark McGuinness
- Abraham Lincoln
- Krista Tippett
- Debbie Millman
- Winston Churchill
- Langston Hughes
- Lyle Lovett
- Jacqueline Novogratz
- Naomi Dunford
- “James Chartrand”
That’s a wordy bunch, isn’t it! Many thanks to all of them for their guidance and example — whether they meant to give it or not.
