We present \"Second Look\", a platform for helping people, in particular creative writers, to overcome writer's block. This ubiquitous platform combines augmented reality (Google Glass and AR markers), ubiquitous computing (mobile phones), and crowdsourcing in order to improve the creativity, focus and performance of creative writers. A primary challenge in developing and evaluating creativity support tools is that we are not able to detect when a person is being creative. Our approach improves current ones by exploring the \"in-the-moment\" creativity and supporting it with adaptive ubiquitous technologies that try to keep people in a creative experience peak for a longer period of time.
