Shortly over a year ago I mentioned that I was going to explore a book on creativity written by Eric Maisel. I didn’t follow it daily, but I found the ideas and exercises interesting.
Well, just a few days ago I was contacted by his publicist asking me if I’d be interested in participating in a “blog tour” for his upcoming book, Ten Zen Seconds. It’s a type of marketing that seems collaborative and mutually beneficial. I thought it would be rather fun. I’ll get to know other bloggers who focus on similar interests, become acquainted with the author, and get a free book out of the deal!
In a couple of months, I will interview Eric about his book as it relates to a topic of interest to me. As I develop this I’ll keep you posted. And once the Ten Zen Seconds blog tour page is updated, I’ll post a link to that instead. It will be a trove of resources on creativity.
For general information on Eric Maisel, you might visit his website, too.

Hey, I’ve got one of his books! How did his publicist find your blog? I can’t wait for the interview…
You know, I didn’t ask her. I imagine she Googled key words (mindfulness, zen, meditation) and my blog came up in the results. Maybe I’ll write and ask.
