the_gneechA day off from Starbucks and where do I go? To another Starbucks of course. >.> Mainly for a “different place” to be instead of at my own computer so that I’ll focus on writing, instead of being distracted by Youtube, Final Fantasy, or even doing art. >.>
And yes, being distracted by wanting to do art is a thing again. O.o After years of grief, depression, burnout, or just plain having too much to carry, I had all but forgotten what it was like to be excited to draw, instead of feeling like it was something I “should be doing.” I’ve missed it like whoa. O.o
I think the art streams have certainly been a factor there–even if the first two months of doing art streams were almost all “Sorry, this week’s stream is canceled.” XD Another factor has been just plain admitting to myself that my heart was not in the things I was doing, and deciding instead to go back to what my heart WAS in.rowyn put it very succinctly the other day: “Sometimes you have to follow the path of least creative resistance.”
I’ll post more about that on Monday–I want to do a big “New Year’s Announcement” about it–but I’m very pumped for it. It’s nice to be looking forward to something again. :)
