This book is part of Yvette’s How To series which includes the books that she edited that are also multiple contributor anthologies:

This is How We Create: Stories about Bringing Ideas to Life

Here are the links to various Amazon stores by region in case you’d like a Kindle or paperback version of the book (courtesy of Dr. Yvette Prior):

I cannot wait to hold a copy of the book in my hand! I’ve reviewed the various drafts with the excellent collection of essays about creating but there will be something so special to read it as a physical book (though Kindle is awesome too!)

I am excited to share that an essay I wrote on creativity will be part of the anthology This is How We Create, edited by Dr. Yvette Prior of priorhouse blog and PRIORHOUSE WRITES.

Here is the draft book cover:

According to Dr. Prior’s Book page on her PRIORHOUSE WRITES it is scheduled for release in September 2026. Based on other books listed on that blog page, I think it will be available as a paperback from Amazon, a Kindle book and perhaps other mediums.

I can’t wait to see the published book 🙂
