Well, as expected it took me a few weeks to post another blog post. However, to be fair the world is going through some growing pains at the moment; especially here in the U.S. Which, I suppose some people might offer as even more reason to be prolific with one’s writing and digital presence. I think those people are wrong, though. At least as far as I a concerned because I have never been one to write a lot when there are major events going on in the world or in my life; terrifying or otherwise. And I think that is fine. There is a lot to process during these days in the void of quarantine. I imagine a million and one blogs are discussing this at the moment so I won’t go on restating the obvious, but I will say this: I think it’s okay to create art in your own time. It’s not always healthy to be racing to finish projects in an attempt to stay productive (read: distracted) during a pandemic. Sometimes you need to just walk around your yard barefoot, lay in the grass, and get itchy.
