Anyone else here transfer their creative energies (normally devoted to writing) into other pursuits now and then? It seems like a lot of creatives are multi-taskers in terms of different kinds of art or productivity. Da Vinci (art, inventions, architecture, etc), Chuck Norris (movies, thumping people, etc), Larry the Cable Guy (comedy, voice of Mater, etc), etc. One of my other things is songwriting. Here's an old tune I did called Steel Bird. Anyway, it'd be fun to hear what other people are up to in their spare time (only if it's legal).

I have my graphic design work, which is a nice change of pace when the writing starts to make my head hurt.

Ha! Writing is my spare time creative activity. I'm a full-time musician. I'll take up different instruments every once in awhile just for the heck of it.

I read, read and read some more. I also have a few factual writing projects that require extensive research. Every now and then I do a bit with no real publication date in mind.
I also have my psychic work, but that's another story. I am a polymath, no spare time to slow down.

Wow, Christopher!!  What a great song.  The vocals were wonderful.  


Oh, I forgot...my psychic work keeps me so busy that I only have time for that and writing.

I like painting miniatures, but I just haven't had time.  I really need to get rich so I can quit my day job.

I think my occasional forays into writing are the transfer of my creative energies into other pursuits. I'm fortunate enough to have a day job that's the primary focus of my creativity (software architect/engineer).

Where to start? Like Dara, I'm a graphic designer. I also design knitted lace scarves, shawls and accessories, and have recently begun a project of designing pure silk tote bags from recycled Indian saris.
