\"\"<\/a>Inspired by the STORY conference<\/a>, and the piece I wrote for the official attendees notebook (on Little Free Libraries), I decided to start telling a very amazing Story of my own. It begins this summer, and unfolds a bit at a time.<\/p>\n

Officially, nothing has happened … no advertising or promo blitz… but if you want to poke around, you’ll see some new things<\/a>. Actually, if you don’t want to poke around and sniff out the new, semi-hidden stuff you won’t much care about what it is in the first place.<\/p>\n

Since creativity is married to curiosity you get your creative juices going on adventures, mysteries, discoveries, and treasure hunts of various kinds.<\/strong>\u00a0It’s hard if not impossible to have one without the other.<\/p>\n

I’m up to something, and you can start to find out what it is. But, yes, it’s all up to you. And\u00a0I’m not worried about spreading the word because it’s the anti-release…A good Story doesn’t need the same kind of advertising. It grows its own legs and walks the Story around for you.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

There will be more revealed throughout the summer. Stop back when you can.<\/p>\n

one more thing, by way of introduction (anti-introduction)….<\/strong><\/em>
\nThe first phase has everything to do with “the letterbox”. You know, that old thing that holds bills and circulars, political flyers, and sometimes the random greeting card.<\/p>\n

When was the last time opening the mail was magical?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Perhaps\u00a0Now<\/a>?<\/p>\n

(There is a contest running all summer. See if you can find the tab under “Spark My Muse!”)<\/p>\n
