Love this. I love to doodle and paint and make things with my hands. I’ve always loved art and creativity, so I can concur with those points made. I also find my art to be total rubbish, when others do not. It’s a battle! 🤣
You have the vision to create. I was an absolute tasker with specific, exact timetables. Keep going and have fun with it. Glad I "found" Substack a year ago.
For a newbie writer like me, it was really good to know that experienced writers like you have the same creative angst. I don't feel so bad now I know it comes with the territory. Thanks for the post Susan
Oh I think I’ve second guessed every word! 😂 I really believe if the great writers were honest they would say they write and rewrite and rewrite and drink and rewrite some more! 😂
Got to you late. Great observations on creativity. You're doing a hell of a job with your Substack. One thing though, you might want to have a backup laptop just in case.😆😆😘
The results are the carrot that keeps dangling in front of us-just one more bite!
Truth!!!!

Right. Why do we do this!?! I write and rewrite...and take pictures and edit them endlessly! STOP THE MADNESS! 😂😂😂
Yes!!!!!!
I still don’t know the answer of how to stop it, but madness is right! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Ha! Sometimes after I’ve messed with it for so long I just hold my breath and push the send button! 🫣. Have a great Sunday!!
❤️ keep up your good work!
Thank you...I truly appreciate it. 👍

We need taskers! I'm glad you're here, Kathy! Thanks! Have a wonderful day! ✌️

LOL! You might be right! I know this is your "season". I'll buy you a beer soon. 👍🤗
Looking forward to it.😘
Enjoyed this, and can hard relate! Thanks, Susan.
Glad you enjoyed it, Cherie! It's not easy, is it!? 😃
It is not, which is why we need you to remind us now and then!
I always enjoy your posts, Susan. Keep up the good work.
I so appreciate that.... Substack brings all kinds of people together! ❤️❤️
Susan Niemann: Congratulations on your landmark achievements!
Keep going!
Thank you Armand! Your encouragement is so appreciated! ✌️❤️
So much truth and I can relate. Congratulations on your new venture!
Hugs Jane! We’re both out there doing our level best-just don’t toss the computer in the street 😂😂
Just remember, we’re the beneficiaries of your writing!
I appreciate that Anthony ! ✌️
That is one of my favorite books (FLOW). I read it in grad school and it resonated with me then. I may need to read/listen to it again! :)
I’m ordering it, Sharon! I read about the author and some excerpts of the book! Can’t wait to dive in!
It is so satisfying to read your writing, and be able to say, “That’s so true!” Congratulations on your newest venture into Substack writing.
Kathleen! Thank you! Out here no one cares how old you are! 😂. Been a tremendous experience! 😘
