A Sneak Peak


Hand Drawn and edited in Adobe Photoshop



I created this blog to raise awareness on the book I will publish later this year entitled “Think Outside the Word.” Please read and enjoy the small snippet from my book.



            Think Outside the Word is more than a book title; it is a way of life for many prominent creative professionals. You can likely visual an instance in which you thought outside the word, because it is as simple as engaging in your imagination. Your investment in this visual expedition full of imagery and exclusive industry content is evidence of your desire to develop and exploit the power of your brain through exercising the inherent creativity you were born with. Often, the transition from child to adult leads to lost creativity, frightening, though true. Consider the imagination as you would think of your most treasured limb. If you were to break this limb, you would wear a cast for months, and once it was removed, the healed limb would be weak and stiff because of months of inactivity. There is a bright side, though. After physical therapy, the beloved limb will function close to 100%. The preceding process holds true for the imagination. A prevalent number of successful people in various industries and diverse roles achieved their goal by harnessing their creativity and becoming known as the person that people rely on for winning ideas. No matter your profession, background, or experience, this book will add value to your life.

Study Abroad in Prague, Czech Republic

Old Town
 
Next, we would visit Prague. Prague is a beautiful city with cobblestone streets. I learned so much about Czech culture and business practices during this visit. We dropped our things off in our rooms and had lunch. Then, we visited our first business, the Czech National Bank. The speaker provided a wealth of knowledge about the financial structure of the Czech Republic.

         Our second visit would be to a newspaper, MF Dnes. Our speaker was very open and
 
informed about the state of the newspaper industry in Prague. He answered questions
 
before giving us a tour of the building. It was good to visit a media business.

Czech culture is rich and full of defining moments; our coordinator was extremely knowledgeable about Czech history. We enjoyed a guided tour of Prague’s old town, and the architecture was beautiful. We saw the astronomical clock in the old town square, which is an event that many people huddle around to see.







 





 
We visited the Terezin concentration camps, which was a life altering experience. It was a glimpse into a tragic part of humanities’ history, but I know that there is value in learning about all aspects of a country’s history in our global economy.
 

We had one last class and a going away dinner; it was an enjoyable night. We were able to relax and reflect on our dynamic educational experience. The next day, we flew back home to our respective cities.


 

My overall impression of the trip was positive. We had two professionally accomplished professors teaching our course. The entire group seemed to benefit greatly from the experience. I am glad to have been a part of the first Keller students to study abroad. I definitely grew professionally and personally.

Book Review


This is a book review of Fading Empires, Volume I by Ian Kane. I am writing this book review because I enjoy anything and everything science fiction or fantasy. Additionally, I like to promote the work of creative professionals. I would like to start this post by thanking Ian for granting me permission to review his book. Thank you very much, Ian.

 
I always find it important to try something new and to constantly reinvent myself. I tried reading a new author, Ian Kane, and found he had a different approach to science fiction. It seems appropriate that he have a fresh approach to a well-defined genre. Ian, thank you for sharing your perspective on science fiction through your book.

 
Ian seems to be an ambitious writer because he has three volumes. For more on Ian and his books please click on the link below.
