A ROADMAP OUT OF THE RUT. A BLUEPRINT FOR REINVENTION. A MANUAL FOR GREATNESS. Embark on the grand road trip adventure of iconic rapper and entrepreneur Rick Ross in this&nbsp;powerful guide, packed with his tools and secrets to staying inspired. It's been nearly twenty years since Rick Ross broke out with his 2005 debut single "Hustlin'". Since then, he’s cemented his legacy in hip-hop as an all-time great and found success in dozens of endeavors beyond music, obtaining every object of his desire. Mansions. Cars. Yachts. Private jets. But as Ross approaches 50 years of age and the 20-year anniversary of "Hustlin", he finds himself in unfamiliar territory: a mid-life crisis. His first creative rut. The Renaissance of a Boss tells the story of Rick Ross rediscovering his spark. After several false starts – including a failed attempt to climb Mount Kilimanjaro – he decided to hit the open road in search of answers to life’s big questions. In this book, readers will discover: <ul> <li>An inside look into Ross’s collaborations with celebrities like Dr. Dre, Bruno Mars, and Bill Murray</li> <li>The places Ross turned to for inspiration – from the historic sites of his own creative heroes, to a shrooms-induced hallucination that he was in the film Emancipation</li> <li>Behind-the-scenes details about how some of Ross’s biggest hits, lyrics, and beats came to be</li></ul> The epic journey takes Ross to Elvis Presley's Graceland estate in Memphis, Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo and ultimately a Native American sweat lodge ceremony in Santa Fe. Along the way, Ross reflects on his creative process, the artists who have inspired him, and shares his own rituals and habits that made him into one of the most prolific minds in music today.

Notes from a Creative Reawakening

Renaissance of a Boss

A creative masterclass for aspiring and established writers alikeAfter decades of writing award-winning books on subjects ranging from poetry to art to liturgical seasons, celebrated author Marilyn McEntyre turns her attention to the vocation that has shaped her life. Start with a Word: On the Craft and Adventure of Writing is a literary masterclass that eschews drills and formulas in favor of close readings and refreshingly playful advice.A veteran teacher, Marilyn understands that the best writing instruction doesn't come from rigid rules or rote approaches to filling the blank page. Instead, she demonstrates how the writers whose works we have enjoyed can become our tutors. She calls us to move beyond asking "What does this text say?" to a more revealing question: "How does this text work?" This shift in perspective--from passive consumption to active apprenticeship--transforms how we encounter literature and how we create it.More than a how-to manual, Start with a Word is an invitation into a way of being that honors both the precision and the mystery of words. It offers short lessons on essential elements of literary craft, close readings of passages from a range of works, writing prompts, and, above all, encouragement for authors to find their unique path into work only they can create. "Reading and writing keep alive in us the desire to be precise, lively, surprising, generous, inviting, challenging, wise. They make us want to be good, if only in the sense that choosing exact and appropriate words is a matter of choosing the good. . . . I don't think you can be an excellent writer without developing some virtues, if only fidelity to a practice that honors the gift of language."

Most composition textbooks begin with skills like thesis writing and paragraph structure. This one begins with a person. Writing as Self-Design is a transformative textbook in which students examine control of information and discover their agency in meaning-making. Informed by neuroscience, rhetorical theory, digital literacy, and composition pedagogy, this book challenges students to question how meaning is made, filtered, and constrained in the digital age, and to develop their unique voices through composition strategies that reclaim writing as an act of self-design. It is a book which responds to the technological landscape in which we find ourselves. Rather than convincing students of the value of research and writing, Writing as Self-Design allows them to discover their own emotional value through enhanced agency in inquiry and resistance. Through this textbook, composition becomes a space in which students question information control, the hedonic cycle of passive consumption, and their greater agency in creativity and intentional design. Recognizing the ubiquity of tools like AI, this book encourages critical examination of how and why they are used. Students engage with algorithmic bias, misinformation, datafication, and the influence of platforms like Google, TikTok, and ChatGPT: not just as topics, but as forces that shape the way they think, write, and relate to the world. The value of Writing as Self-Design will resonate well beyond the classroom, addressing the importance of the critical skills needed to navigate the "total noise" of our media-saturated lives, build personal definitions of success, and rediscover the creative cycle that leads to lasting happiness and fulfilment.

Letting Grief Speak

With rejection and intense commitment such integral parts of the writing life, many struggle to stay with the creative process. Combining explorations of perseverance, intention, riding through failure, and meaning-making with bringing oneself fully into one's art, Stay With It offers writers practices to sustain their writing and their creative life. Through a hybrid of craft, pedagogy, memoir and personal essay that call upon reflective exercises and prompts, Cindy Shearer helps writers understand themselves as artists as well as the nature of writing as an artistic process and practice. Drawing on knowledge from art forms beyond writing, from dancing to visual art, this book shows writers how to: - Develop their own tools for sustaining their practice that are adaptable and unique to them - See rules as opportunities and that there is no right or required process - Recognize failure as a way to probe what they really want as writers - Ask questions to understand their markets and create sustainable processes based on external drivers - Discern their true goals focused around what they truly want to create. Moving, illuminating and inspiring, Stay With It will help writers discover and claim a process they can rely on for support again and again.
