BLOG ASSIGNMENT # 9 Freak Factor


Create a link on your blog to http://changethis.com/manifesto/show/45.02.FreakFactor so that your audience can read David Rendall’s “FREAK FACTOR: Discovering Uniqueness by Flaunting Weakness”.

Then, summarize the article for your audience and critique whether Rendall’s nine
suggestions are valid.  Respond to three of the nine suggestions and discuss whether the
suggestions for overcoming weakness are valid.

• If you think the suggestion is valid, explain how you might implement the idea
into your own Creative Life.
• If you think the suggestion is invalid, explain why you think this is a bad way to
attempt to overcome weakness.
Spend about 250-300 words on each item.   Then, using another 250-300 words,
answer this question:

What have you found your strengths and weaknesses to be (as far as “the creative
process” is concerned)?

Grading Criteria
-- A thoughtful critique of three of Rendall’s 14 suggestions [5 points each x 3]
-- Discussion of your own strengths and weaknesses (re: Creativity) [10 points]
-- Did not meet length requirements (too long or too short) [-15 pts each]
