I'm not quite sure how to describe my personal creative block. It's like being closed in a tight solid box without any way of getting out. I sit in a dark corner trying desperately to figure a way out. Then comes a glimpse of light showing itself through a tear in one side of the box. Very slowly at first the light starts to push through, then like a flood gate opening a torrent of light comes crashing through. Out of my box comes a passionate surge of creativity. It's a shame I spend too much time in my box, but once out, what a breath of fresh air. After reading your post, I think when I get stuck in my box next time I will make it a better place. A place my creative self can explore every inch of the box in a positive way, recognising it as just a part of the creative process. I think the box should be made of chocolate for a start, that way I can make the break through more enjoyable. Lynda. Andy, I really enjoyed reading this post.
