Where does the inspiration come from? How does the story begin? Did the moments that appeared in the memory foreshadow the material? Are there any paths and experiences to follow when creating ideas? This is a problem that every creator must face, even though they seem so mysterious and unspeakable - "Experience, creation, they are like two sides of a copper plate. When the copper plate rotates, it is neither the front nor the back, but a moment of revelation." - And now, this book will take us close to these "moments of revelation." The creative thinking of Ray Bradbury, one of the greatest writers of the 20th century and author of "Fahrenheit 451," is revealed for the first time. It leads you back in time to explore how science fiction masters turned love or anger into writing motivation; how to enrich the body's various perceptions to feed the muse; how to capture a certain auspicious moment in life and solidify it forever... The book has a total of twelve chapters, with humorous writing, as light and clever as poetry. It is like having a long conversation with the master through time and space, helping you who are interested in writing to clarify the creative myths and move forward.
