The Magnificent Manifesto

A manifesto is composed of either an individual or a groups clear motives, views, or intentions. The manifesto is usually made public, or has appeared in published form. It contains three essential parts: the beliefs, the goals, and the wisdom. Many types of manifestos exist from artists to writers. Here are some examples of good manifestos: http://www.lifehack.org/articles/lifestyle/10-awesome-inspirational-manifestos.html http://www.buzzfeed.com/monicatan/11-manifestos-that-could-change-your-art-life-ehq1#.qqoA0W7oK http://www.chowhound.com/manifesto https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2010/02/art-manifestos-and-their-applications-in-contemporary-design/ I will be posting my manifesto at a later date on this blog.

Good Reading

Here is a link to some good reading material, a good author, and a good contest for today. http://www.ebbrown.net/march-fiction “There is no friend as loyal as a book.” ~Ernest Hemingway~ “What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet or excite you. Books help us understand who we are and how we are to behave. They show us what community and friendship mean; they show us how to live and die.” ~Anne Lamott~ Enjoy! :)
