I’ve been having trouble working on my writing lately. When that happens, I often turn to other ways of being creative. I have been making some desultory progress on some knitting and crocheting projects. And last week I bought some plants at a local Ace Hardware and put them in a raised bed in our back yard. Four tomato plants, two red bell peppers, and a zucchini plant. And then I found nine oldish red potatoes that were growing eyes in the bottom of a cupboard and planted a potato patch as well. Hopefully these alternative creative activities will get my writing mojo flowing again.
