Danny Wallace is one of my creative heroes because he comes up with some of the most silly, insane ideas that you could possibly imagine. Then, instead of telling him self that he'd fall flat on his face and look like a complete moron if he tried to execute one of his ideas.... he just does it.
Like placing an ad in a London newspaper that says "Join Me."
Like deciding to say "Yes" to every question that anybody asks him. For a year.
Sometimes the purpose of the project is evident at the start of his adventures, sometimes it shows up later. Either way, he follows it confidently and genuinely through to the end. Then when its all over, he writes a book about it. And sometimes that book is made into a movie. And some times that movie stars Jim Carey. (Or more importantly, Zooey Deschanel.)
So, Danny Wallace is one of my creative heroes because he has the confidence and courage to follow through with his creative convictions.
Also, he's a hot English dude with spiky hair and glasses.
And, he's really funny.


this is really cool, esp about the movies-- i never knew that! thanks for sharing. also, he's really hot.
