Free Food – Performance Art

By Jack Lugar

Performance art is no mystery to you, and a good show may lead to the tossing of coinage.  So don’t hold back.  You’ve done some pretty crazy things on stage or in the subway before.  Remember that time you skipped naked through the airport terminal yelling, “I feel like a pickle!” as an artistic... »

What’s Burning?

By Jack Lugar

I joined a 30 day writing initiative yesterday which is part of The Domino Project.  While The Domino Project is something I don’t quite understand, I thought it would be good to explore.  I felt that way about Facebook and Twitter when I joined and over time began to understand their purpose.  Maybe The... »

Swapping Pyramids for Pies

By Jack Lugar

The Food Guide Pyramid is out.  After spending two million dollars in tax payer money, the government (The USDA specifically) has gotten rid of the pyramid and created a pie chart (actually a dinner plate of some sort).  Irony aside about the new symbol being a “pie” chart, is the whole “instructions on eating”... »

I Made a Cereal Box

By Jack Lugar

I really could have used an Easy Button. Somewhere in the process of writing The Starving Artist’s Diet I decided that I should make a collector’s cereal box as a gift and marketing tool for the book.  After listening to a speech by Seth Godin, I was motivated to create the cereal box as... »

I am an Artist

By Jack Lugar

One of the hardest things to admit to myself over the years has been the fact that I am an artist.  Why?  Fear of rejection?  Fear of other “artists” not agreeing with me?  A perception that I needed to be corporate?  Thinking that my art wasn’t real art?  You know… Writing isn’t art.  Singing... »

The Starving Artist’s Diet Wordle

I created a quick Wordle for The Starving Artist’s Diet. This is just a test run, but I think this will be fun to play with as a promotional tool for the book and I’ll probably do something with it for all the people who helped get the book off the ground. You should... »

Interview with a Hamburger

By Jack Lugar

I’m not sure it’s ever been done before, but as a promo for my book, The Starving Artist’s Diet, I made this special video.  I want to thank my wife and kids for helping me put this together.  Also, it was nice of them to humor me and laugh.  I got the music from... »

A Moving, Spiritual Experience

By Jack Lugar

Creating a Kickstarter campaign has been bit of an emotional roller-coaster. I’ve been excited, happy, humbled, irritated, surprised, exasperated, and resolute. One of the thing I didn’t really expect in launching this campaign was the resulting inner struggle it would create. It has made me very introspective. It has made me think deeply about... »

I’ve launched a Kickstarter campaign which allows everyone to pre-order their copy or multiple copies and get a collectible copy in The Starving Artist’s Diet branded cereal box. Check it out. »

The Starving Artist’s Diet Campaign has Launched

I just added a widget for my Kickstarter campaign for The Starving Artist’s Diet.  I hope you’ll take a moment to check out the project.  Even better, I’d love for you to join me in bringing the book to press.  If you really want to go crazy, grab the widget and put it on... »
