Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
An inspiring visual guide to a richer life. "If there's a thinker to steal from, it's Jessica Hagy."--Austin Kleon, author of Steal Like an Artist and Newspaper Blackout How to Be Interesting is passionate, positive, down-to-earth, and irrepressibly upbeat, combining fresh and pithy life lessons, often just a sentence or two, with deceptively simple diagrams and graphs. Each of the book's more than 100 spreads will nudge readers a little bit further out of their comfort zones and into a place where suddenly everything is possible. It's about taking chance--but also about taking daily vacations. About being childlike, not childish. It's about ideas, creativity, risk. It's about trusting your talents and doing only what you want--but having the courage to get lost and see where the path leads. Because it's what you don't know that's interesting.
Go exploring -- Share what you discover -- Do something. Anything -- Embrace your weirdness -- Have a cause -- Minimize the swagger -- Give it a shot -- Hop off the bandwagon -- Grow a pair -- Ignore the scolds.
Combining fresh and pithy life lessons, often just a sentence or two, with deceptively simple diagrams and graphs, this inspiring guide shows you how to lead a richer life. Written by the author of the Webby award-winning blog, Indexed.
