What I’ve been reading

As my two week break from uni is coming to an end I thought I would let you know what books I’ve been reading. 

I chose Damn good advice by George Lois to read first. This is a book full of self help tips for creative people, highlighting how to be the best at anything you do and achieve great creative success. I really enjoyed flicking through this book as it was packed full of motivational bursts of wisdom. It has really cemented in my head how important it is to be fearless in a creative industry and the need to push your ideas as far as you can to get the most out of them. 

I read How to tell your story so the world listens by Bobette Buster second. I enjoyed this book as it gave you tips on how to structure and shape your story so people are drawn in to what you are saying and are more likely to listen to what you have to say. Each section of the book focuses on teaching you a different lesson and includes an anecdote to help the reader understand how these tips and tricks have been used in real life scenarios. Having not read in a while it was an easy quick read and has made me want to get into reading again. 

I have a few more books I am going to be reading over the next few weeks so when I’ve read them I will give you some more reviews!
