Amy Tan (author of books such as The Joy Luck Club and The Hundred Secret Senses) offers a light hearted presentation on her intimate experiences with the creative process and storytelling in a recently released video on Tedtalks.
Amy Tan talks about her childhood and family history as she seeks the answers to big questions such as why do things happen? How do things happen? and How do I make things happen?
In this interesting presentation, Amy Tan states that creating something from nothing is partly due to chance occurrences, providing her with partial answers in her quest for hidden answers.
