I'd like to explore his vocabulary of meaning more, but I guess I know where I can find it.

FANTASTIC interview; Dr. M provides a fascinating perspective on existential depression in creative folks. As someone expert in the pharmacologic remedies of depression and other emotional and psychiatric ills, I see more and more the overmedication of our 'dark' feelings rather than an attempt to understand and derive meaning from themLindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01110078016784294934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-79733145054935649022008-02-07T19:45:00.000+05:002008-02-07T19:45:00.000+05:00This is an amazing set of comments.What would be s...This is an amazing set of comments.<BR/><BR/>What would be so fun would be, at a later date, to see the "interview questions that got away" on the topics you mention of<BR/>-- culture and creativity, <BR/>--the late bloomer and creativity,<BR/>--self doubt and expression,<BR/>--and latent talent.<BR/><BR/>Even without Eric's answers....perhaps posing these as questions for your readers in the Janet Grace Riehlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03921731725804450430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-10897566855262013162008-02-07T17:49:00.000+05:002008-02-07T17:49:00.000+05:00hmm, get some regular doses thanks to creativegarh...hmm, get some regular doses thanks to creativegarh. hey, you should get in there. its on yahoogroups.<BR/><BR/>PS. unless of course, thats the group you mentioned, and you are already a member, the silent type, like me :)manuscryptshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610761336778547517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-66544887938023262232008-02-07T17:46:00.000+05:002008-02-07T17:46:00.000+05:00This comment has been removed by the author.manuscryptshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08610761336778547517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-49301016430339893752008-02-06T09:45:00.000+05:002008-02-06T09:45:00.000+05:00babyisland: Of course you're creative, no two why'...babyisland: Of course you're creative, no two why's about that.

I was in despair. I'm still in despair, but know a bit more about it. The best thing about reading and hearing Maisel is that I feel less alone. It's not all in my head - I really am relating in these ways to my writing and there really are ways to look at that relationship. 'Hope' and 'honesty' sum it up. <BR/><BR/>Thanks.Alice Folkarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06114004720371895150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-2513867440587059302008-02-01T22:19:00.000+05:002008-02-01T22:19:00.000+05:00you wonderful person.read, listened, i see where i...you wonderful person.<BR/><BR/>read, listened, i see where it will help.<BR/><BR/>the universe is wonderful in how it brings strangers who aren't strangers into our life paths, isn't it?<BR/><BR/>i'm lucky there, with your path crossing mine.quin brownehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09804746948797234402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-1889791801634527262008-02-01T19:29:00.000+05:002008-02-01T19:29:00.000+05:00Austere:Thank you for this interview.

To be very honest, I think I have a mental block against these kind of books, which I generally categorise as "management type" :-) But, the title of this one, Van Gogh Blues, is quite interesting, as is the subject. <BR/><BR/>Constant questioning is a part of the creative process, isn't it? I may have read it wrong but his response here makes it sound almost like an esteem issue.GhostOfTomJoadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13548587422494111204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29521815.post-38700310097127411422008-02-01T14:47:00.000+05:002008-02-01T14:47:00.000+05:00Hello!
