Showing Up Anyway
The Part of Creative Practice Nobody Dreams About
It’s Saturday morning.
My newsletter is due tomorrow.
I don’t have anything yet.
This is not the part you dream of when you start building a creative practice.
The weeks when nothing shows up on its own.
When you sit down not because you’re inspired but because Sunday is tomorrow and oh shit I forgot to write my newsletter.
So you sit down anyway.
And somewhere in the middle of that, the thing usually finds you.
But then you remember.
That’s the whole job.
If you enjoyed reading this, the highest compliment I can think of is if you restacked it or shared it with one person who you think it would help.
