Oh yeah, I get a high when the words are flowing well. Funny, if I’m working on assigned stuff, it’s just a sense of relief and completion. If I’m writing something new, dreaming a poem or a plot of my own accord, I could power a blender with manic, happy energy.
It’s honestly something I’ve never thought much about, but…It’s true. If I go for very long (two days) without writing/creating (including making jewelry), I get cranky. So maybe there is something to that.
I stumbled upon your blog as I was pondering the question of creativity as a means of communication. I recently posted on this topic on my own blog, the Damian Daily. I welcome your thoughts on the topic.
I like your post about giving yourself “permission” to create. I couldn’t agree more!
