Things are not incredibly fun right now. I’ve been so busy trying to get my room taken down so renovations can start, I didn’t notice a cold creeping up on me. I started to feel listless and stuffy. Then, bam! Stupid, ninja cold bugs. So I’m blogging live from my bed (who am I kidding? This is where I write most of my stuff) in between watching old episodes of Good Eats.
When I’m taking downtime like this, I often think about all of the things I have to do. And when I do that, I realize just the sheer number of things I do.
While writing is the primary drive of my life, it is far from the only thing. And even that can be broken down and catalogued. I write original fiction, fanfiction, blog entries, comics.
There’s my baking, which is probably my number one stress reliever. Nothing is more relaxing than mixing ingredients together. Unfortunately, I haven’t gotten to do this one much lately, since I’ve been watching what I’ve been eating. But I still do get to try out healthier recipes on occasion…
Of course, my crafting goes in a million different directions. I sew clothes, wallets and I’m even getting into plush critters and other little things (I swear, Tammy, I shall get to your commission when I’m not going to infect it with germ). And then there’s the sculpting and the button making….

There is just no continuity in my interests. I’m not happy unless I have a million and one hobbies going.
I don’t know whether or not this is a good thing. I know some people who dedicate themselves to one thing. And they become really, fantastically good at that one thing. But still, it’s one thing. No matter how much I liked one thing, I think I would become terminally bored if I focused on just one interest. In the back of my head, I’d always be thinking, “Well, why don’t I try this?”
But gaining a mastery of one thing and becoming well known for that one thing is an avenue towards success. As it stands now, I don’t think anyone quite knows what to expect of me. I just sort of pop up with, “Well, this is a cool thing what with I tried.”
While “artist” can be used as a catch-all term for anything, well, artistic, it is generally reserved for people in the visual arts, which is does not cover everything I do. Can I possibly call myself a “creator”? That seems to better encapsulate all of my interests. It’s the one constant. No matter what I’m doing, I’m creating.
Which I suppose isn’t a bad hobby to have.
