It is not about the “fuck no” it is about the “practice”, but the “fuck no” got your attention, didn’t it?
I thought several months ago all I had to do was declare it is now time for me, to fulfill what I need to do creatively. I needed to spend some time with who and what I am by practicing my art. I thought all I had to do is holler “fuck no” it is now time for me and it would happen. But here is the ugly truth…Not only have I had to make time for me but I have to go into the studio, kitchen, porch (where ever I am… creating) and do it. Just because I made time…does not make the desire “to do” return. I have used “no time”, “not well” and “too busy” as an excuse not to do.
The muse is not magically returning because I have walked away from of any of these or the tons of other reasons I concocted…it only arrives when I go in the studio and work! Making the time is just one of the parts of my creative life I knew this already…I have to take back my life by actually going into the studio and practice, practice, practice my art!
