A lot of people think that creativity is binary: Either you have it, or you don't. But actually (and science has proved it), all of us have it. It's just a matter of how much we apply it. This extraordinary book explains in detail a special method using 5 uniquely created paintings designed to energize your imagination and ignite your creativity. By applying the 4 steps of the special L-I-V-E visualization technique (Look - Interpret - Visualize - Experience) to these pictures, the imagination becomes a powerful energizer to ignite a person's creativity.This is particularly effective for people who have had difficulty getting started and/or sticking with a plan of action. The most common reason people often fail to reach their goals is they are trying to make outward changes without making any inward changes. In most cases, a genuine inward change must hap-pen first before the outward change can become a lasting reality. The secret to doing that is using the power of the imagination, and this book will teach you how. Whether you are looking to pursue new creative activities or perhaps you want to enhance your already active creativity, this method will help you achieve your goal.

Based on actual events that happened between 1956 and 1960 in Front Royal, Virginia; this compelling story reveals the often overlooked depth of the human side of the story. The action is depicted through a collection of snap-shots of whites and blacks which creates a wide-angle montage. Their stories give clarity and dimension to the historical events. The story combines strong characters, heartwarming scenes, psychological tension, humor, 1950s nostalgia, and even a murder mystery.
