The next novel I'm working on is about an artist in the 9th century -- so getting back in touch with art and patterns and creating just for the fun of it has been both inspiring and really enjoyable. I didn't realize how much I missed this kind of creativity. Focusing on my writing is good, but I think balancing it and feeding it with other art forms will enrich the writing even more. I tell my students to doodle or draw some mornings as a freewrite prompt, now I'm practicing what I teach. :)
