Back in 1958, Ted Schwarzrock was an 8-year-old third grader when he became one of the “Torrance kids,” a group of nearly 400 Minneapolis children who completed a series of creativity tasks newly designed by professor E. Paul Torrance. Schwarzrock still vividly remembers the moment when a psychologist handed him a fire truck and asked, “How could you improve this toy to make it better and more fun to play with?”
A study 8 years ago in the US found that creativity scores had been steadily rising, just like IQ scores, until 1990. Since then, creativity scores have consistently inched downward. “It’s very clear, and the decrease is very significant” Time to wake up?
Creativity; You Have to Do The Work.
Sitting on the floor in my living room staring at a blank computer screen; Sometimes I’d rather see that annoying Macintosh rainbow hamster wheel––because at least then I’d know someone (or thing) was thinking. Creative writing is like throwing a dinner party; it all sounds fun until you actually start doing the work––once your guests show up you all get drunk and have a fabulous time, when it’s over you have to clean up the mess and you swear you’ll never do it again––and then a few weeks later you miss the idea of a dinner party.
Speaking of post apocalypses, I talked about writing those on my writing themed podcast Tell Don't Show with a good co-host and friend of mine. We were inspired to talk about it after the gangbusters success of the movie Mad Max: Fury Road.
Which you should see if you're into that sort of thing.
But listen to the show first, obvs.

The SCAMPER method, invented by teaching expert Bob Eberle, is ideal for the kind of brainstorming that balances staying on point and letting everybody involved feel uninhibited as they come up with ideas. What does SCAMPER stand for? Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Minimize or maximize, Put to another use, Eliminate, Reverse or Rearrange.
We tend to think of creativity as the work of a soloist. Interestingly, virtually all acts of greatness are the work of an ensemble.
