Creative+Process

The process through which I created my memoir was not particularly long. I first came up with the idea as I sat next to Walter "The Funkle" Kunkle. We were spitballing with ideas such as "I don't even need six words" and so on when it hit me. "I could do it in five" was my first official draft. I felt it perfectly reflected me and that I could have a really good memoir with a picture and typeface that tied in. The typeface I found was perfect; it was bold, definite, and final. As i searched for a picture, I finally realized that only I could convey the message I wanted. So I had the picture taken with the "five" on my hand and my bold facial expression and I knew it was good.
