From the very first time that I read and listen to Gilbert’s book, I suddenly made a connection and felt like I need to get enough of its idea. I loved her catches about creativity I even wrote some of them down in my journal to think about more and share with my friends. For example one of her chapter she says ‘the universe buries strange jewels deep within us all and then stands back to see if we can find them. The hunt to uncover those jewels- that is creative life’ I am amazed by the deep meaning and logic behind that detection and she bought me! Most of the things she talked about later on were so interesting and inspiring to me. I can say that she is so relatable to me . Her determination through the idea of being a writer was completely fun and exciting to read with her simple understandable expression. In addition, I liked how she put the name Big Magic to her book in terms of creative genre because her belief about the creative process is that this process is already exists in our mind waits there to be explored. And for the weakness of the book, we can say she needed to use more creative ideas for the cover. I liked her way of delivering and most of her ideas. But on the other hand to be honest I found some of her ideas ridiculous too like she claims that some of the ideas can be transmitted to our friends via kissing. I can agree with the idea that the creative process is some kind of magic and we should focus on ourselves more to explore our valuable ideas but I do not think creative ideas are not this supernatural.
