That Time of the Year

1–2 minutes

To read

Oh dear, another big gap between blog posts. In keeping my life moving at the pace to which I have become accustomed, my artistic endeavors have been a bit to the wayside of my thoughts. I’m luckily able to do a few shows with my improv teams, and I’ve had a few evenings where I’ve spent the timer drawing and painting. But I’ve done nearly no writing outside of documentation for work, and I’ve read even less, unless you count endless internet scrolling. In short, I’ve been missing much of the creative joys I try to keep going in my life, and I’m suffering because of it. Readers may note that every time I commit to writing more consistently, I end up doing pretty poorly, so I won’t commit again. Instead I will wish, hopefully and fervently, that writing will happen and I will feel comfy sharing it with you all. Happy Holidays or Whatever, and may the new year bring you the opportunity to make some beautiful art.
