Yeh I have the opposite of writer's block pretty much all of the time, a lot going on, a lot I want to get out, and damn I get super cranky when other things which other people keep insisting is of the utmost importance and I absolutely have to pay attention to it and I couldn't actually care any less about it keep getting in my way XD

Are you talking about people referring you to their steemit posts here? ;>)
I get you. Although I hardly ever get cranky. I just start to loose my energy, feel down and can't be in the now when uninspiring stuff - out of my field of energy and focus - tries to interrupt my flow.
These days I'm working hard on not letting that happen. I can tell you that it helps to be alone (even though that isn't always easy) ;>)
I guess I will be writing a lot, although I can't wait to actually start creating more ( documentaries, movies ? ) but for that I need some more stability - my own place - first. Patience is key though.
Or, in other words,: Not having time for something means not making it a priority
I hope you find a time to prioritize that which gives you energy more and more
but I know that is easier said than done, especially for people with children :>)
Well if I prioritised art anymore I would do it most of the day most days XD And seeing as I'm homeschooling well I can't really do that now can I ;D So yeh. Hard XD And I've pretty much cut down to prioritising those two things, so I don't know how much more I can make them priority lol XD
I wonder if there would be a way to integrate art into the homeschooling - if you aren't already doing that - to make it more fun for you and your kids :>)
My problem is I just don’t know what to write about here on Steemit; lots do travel, photography, food and I like them all but not sure where to start. It’s a self inflicted writers block I suppose..
I get it. It takes time, practice, experience and the guts to just do it. I am on here for 10 and a half months now and I'm still making changes although - by now - I got some 'drawers' to pick from.
Are you on Discord chat? If so, feel free to reach out to me. I would love to help you out of your self inflicted writers block
Perhaps it has to do with the fact that I'm spending a lot of alone time,
I thought about this yesterday! I think the fact that I write so much is because I don't work anywhere, and I don't socialize much these days! If I worked somewhere and was around people all day, I would be sharing my thoughts all day. Writing is all about First Thoughts as Natalie Goldberg says. That's where the juice is. If we talk about an idea a bunch, we wear it out, and there's nothing fresh and lively to write about it.

That explains a lot. Although - you do work. This is your work now (same goes for me). The good thing is that it probably doesn't feel like work. You can be your own boss and decided your own hours and topics and way of working. Pretty awesome!
I am actually more social in a way now - whenever I spend time with others now. Due to the fact that I am looking forward to this contact more and have more energy for it. Being an introvert - I need a lot of alone time to recharge my batteries.
To me it felt like you had a (note)book of posts at the ready but - at the same time - I can sense that your writing comes straight from your heart. It's full of energy. The kind of energy that can't be generated easily by focusing on the past or the future :>)
It's clear to me that you find your juice fountain ;>)

So you're going to be writing a lot then? :D

C ya!
Nope, just time management and having to suddenly switch modes when time is up XD
In Dutch, there's a saying:
"Tijd is prioriteit"
Time is priority
Or, in other words,: Not having time for something means not making it a priority

Have a <3ly day!

An inspiring quote that will change your life :D

C ya around <3
I've been my own boss for six years. I'm unemployable! 🤣🤣🤣
To me, this isn't work. It's an absolute joy.
Yep, my posts are always inspired at the moment I write them!
That's what I reckoned and I'm glad to see it being affirmed by you :>)
I could write a plethora of posts on the jobs that I got fired from and that I quit myself but I feel that would be a waste of energy, so I won't :>)
I know right? All the work drama I had over the years. 😂
