After a delicous homemade meal, John and Lanna chat about how they met (at the Stonecoast Writers' Conference), magic pants, and who has magic in his pants. John explains how he deals with his ADHD. They talk about John's homesteading, music, and creativity seminiar. John recommends a couple of books. And he answers 10 questions.
John is a Creative Cognitist, a title given him by one of his creative partners. A proud ADHD adult, he has many creative pursuits, all of which are supported by his career as an Information Security Consultant/Systems Engineer. He believes that creativity is inherent to being alive, and prefers to talk about people involved in creativity rather than "creative people". He has worked as a cook and chef, and loves working with food, especially locally produced. He is a writer of essays, short-story and poetry, currently working on a book about the human shadow, and pursuing an English degree at USM. He is a musician who studied jazz vocal in another college life, and plays the flute and drums. John has also worked as a professional coach, trainer and organizational developer, working with individuals and organizations to overcome challenges and improve. His curiosity and drive to connect dots keeps him always looking for new endeavors. His latest endeavor is a seminar entitled: Creativity and All That Jazz, during which a live jazz quartet is used to model the 5 core principals of successful organizations. A book on this seminar is also in the works.
