Making Opportunity Knock

"Some say opportunity knocks only once. That is not true.
Opportunity knocks all the time, but you have to be ready for it. If the chance comes, you must have the equipment to take advantage of it."
Louis L'Amour

Creativity academics and specialists, creative business people, and "extra"ordinary individuals who candidly describe their accomplishments, any “failures” or obstacles they encountered along the way, inner resources they’ve developed or relied upon, considerations they’ve taken into account, and specific details of how they attained their successes. These personal stories will touch you in different ways and degrees, ignite your imagination, and motivate your creative thinking.

Chapter 1: Michele Mele / Never Too Old to Follow Your Passion
Chapter 2: Harry Van Bommel / Personal Experience=Opportunities
Chapter 3: Karen Fraser / Making Opportunity Knock
Chapter 4: Neil Doctorow / Perseverance
Chapter 5: Marci Segal / Optimizing Your Creativity
Chapter 6: Wendy Woods / Laughter. The "Ha-Ha" That Leads to "Ah-Ah"


Nellie combines creativity, curiosity, professionalism, encouragement and decades of media experiences to bring out the best in her radio program guests. She is a great listener and, therefore, a great interviewer. Knowing her through her published books as well means I am fortunate to be able to refer her to many colleagues in various fields. As the current generation says, "She's awesome!"
