Facebook post July 27, 2012. So I was told last evening that I was a bit eccentric. Duhhhh. That's okay. Because many people of my ilk (creative, multi project, frenetic entrepreneurs) tend to bend toward odd/anomalous. In my quest for defense, I found this piece on well-known creatives who have a reputation for eccentricity. I love that Victor Hugo (Notre Dame de Paris' and 'Les Misérables') would give all of his clothes to his servant, commanding him NOT to return them until he (Hugo) had completed his tasks for the day. I'm guessing that qualifies as eccentric. (Of course if I gave all of my clothes to my servant (assuming I had a servant) I would just go to bed and call it a day--there would surely be a wad of clothes under my bed anyway, so it really would be no big deal.) So let this be an inspiration to the other creative eccentric folks in our world who help to color and animate our sometimes flavorless environment!! And go get naked. kghttp://the99percent.com/tips/7021/Why-Creative-People-Need-to-Be-Eccentric
