Overview

Creativity isn't the birthright of rare geniuses-it's an essential, accessible toolkit for every person trying to survive. 
 In Ordinary Creativity: How to Survive with Joy, Heather Caliri unpacks how eugenicists, misogynists and racists skewed our understanding of creativity, reframes human ingenuity to include experiences like caregiving, disability, and suffering, and helps you claim your own way of being creative with unapologetic delight.
