Inspiration

My husband is a great source of inspiration to me. As a veteran Storyteller/Game Master in our regular RPGs with friends, I know that he is very talented at weaving tales to delight the masses. Lately, he has been working on a his own RPG/LARP called Reign, and most recently, begun work on a novel; he has an inkling (pardon my pun) that this may be what he wants to do for a living someday, God willing. Seeing him so lit up with inspiration of his own has rekindled my creative drives, leading me to pick up drawing and knitting again, and to a limited extent, blogging. His enthusiasm in infectious that way; you all know how rare it has become for me to actually get around to posting anything (and how bad that makes me feel). I'm excited to be able to preview the book myself, but I know better than to push before he is ready to show it to me. After all, it was his poetry that first caught my attention.
I think my best bet is to pick at things here and there, little by little, as they come to me, until it becomes a habit. Bits of stream-of-consciousness writing and hodge-podge journaling will inevitably give way to full-fledged articles and essays, maybe even some creative writing of my own -- who knows? At the very least, I've got this small entry to show for it.
