For inspirational books geared toward creatives: Steal Like an Artist is the best one of all.

It’s basically a creative manifesto that every artist/ writer/ musician/ performer/ whatever needs to read because every single word in it is true.

It’s also short and fun and has lots of little visual things, so it’s great for us ADD types.

The author, Austin Kleon, also did a Ted Talk that gives a general overview of the ideas he presents in the book. Just watch it, okay? It’s only eleven minutes.
