The Creative Block that felt like Eternity!
and all I got was this comic about not getting ideas..
Once or twice a month, when my ADHD isn’t winning, I scribble out comic-ish blogs on things I feel too much about. If you’re curious about my writing, check out the one where I let my guard down to write about the struggles of body-shaming, or the one where I ranted about how women’s pockets are smaller than men’s egos. If not, just roll into the current blog.
I'm not sure if I had creative anxiety or a block anymore. I'm not even sure I'm fully back to my creative self. But I did turn my spiral into a comic. And more importantly, I've successfully separated myself from my bed.
What’s your go-to move when your brain stops braining?
P.S. Both 'Steal Like an Artist' by Austin Kleon and 'The Artist's Way' by Julia Cameron are two of my favourite books that genuinely helped me (even when I was impatiently waiting for instant results). These books deserve credit for planting the creative seeds that eventually grew into this comic-ish blog, even if it took a friend's kick to make me realize it!
Nice one. I think I needed this. My brain has stopped braining as of now.
Oops!! Love this comic. Probably the only way to get out of creative loop is write about it. Artist way is good one. It does help
