Housekeeping & Loose Ends

"Still Here" by Annalogue75 © 2023 via Creative Fabrica Spark™ for 11.11.23.
Earlier this year I did a revamp and restart of the blogs and newsletters I have with Medium and Substack. Given the circumstances it was a big deal and I kept it going with some regularity for months! Anyone that know what circumstances I am referring to would agree, no doubt, and those that don't know just have to trust me on this.


By the way, feel free to check out my other media - there's a Linktree for that... And I assume you will subscribe, like, follow, or do whatever you can to boost me on each site. I mean it, it would matter a lot if you do.


Now to the real topic - housekeeping and loose ends. I thought I could handle an intense creativity schedule and time-sensitive publications if it all was structured and I gave it my full attention. Yeah..., it didn't work out, and I had to slow down and regroup.

So many other people and things need my attention - and I need my own attention too. The latter is a new experience for me, I'm undecided if I like it or not. But it is necessary to do no matter what, and will continue to be needed for some time to come. To accomodate the needs but also nurish my creativity the I've decided to go about the content creation something like this:

— No regular and scheduled publications.
— No pressure to produce content.
— Focus on quality before quantity.
— Develop more and better skills.
— Create for expression, not attention.
— Recreate and refine my own style.
— Find joy and inspiration again.
— Be more assertive and trust my gut.

Yeah, I think that gives you a good picture of the housekeeping I'm doing and have done so far. It's a process - and it's part of the journey. That reminds me, who says that a lot...?
