How I did it: The best way I can describe it is that I found myself trapped inside a feeling. I acted out, I shouted out, none of that helped. The only other option apart from finding myself on the 6 o clock news was to write it out. That was the start and it was a very dark one. I was shy and still am but thats what I account for my great observantional skill and acquaintance with my imagination and over time what started as a way to stay off the news… Read how I did it…
How I did it: I was a little more responsible with my time than usual and just went to the trenches with the idea that as creative and passionate a guy as I am that this was something I had to do lest the day should come when I breathe my last and regret not having explored the limits of my ability. So, yeah, I got motivated! Then I gathered my tools which had been collecting dust for some time and I put brush to canvas and the rest is history. Read how I did it…
I used to stroll around the knitting club in high school but my attention was not so much on the knitting. I was just cleaning out my closet and theres my old knitting needles and a few spools of yarn. At first I thought, hmm, wow. And then it was I owe it to myself to spin something.
ive set aside time almost everyday to do nothing but be creative and scream colors. ive been making a load of progress and im really proud of myself. the dream is still in a sort of fetal position but i dont worry about it dying inside me anymore. this ones coming out healthy and if i keep on like i have this work will be done before the month is out. and of course, we go back to the drawing board and do it all over again. thanks for the cheers.
