You don't need to be a genius, you just need to be yourself. That's the message from Austin Kleon, a young writer and artist who knows that creativity is everywhere, creativity is for everyone. A manifesto for the digital age, "Steal Like an Artist" is a guide whose positive message, graphic look and illustrations, exercises, and examples will put readers directly in touch with their artistic side -- Publisher.

Steal like an artist -- Don't wait until you know who you are to get started -- Write the book you want to read -- Use your hands -- Side projects and hobbies are important -- The secret: do good work and share it with people -- Geography is no longer our master -- Be nice (the world is a small town) -- Be boring (it's the only way to get work done) -- Creativity is subtraction.
