creative promiscuity......
Ive noticed a common trait amongst most creatives, they canni keep their hands in one cookie jar!! it would appear that one of the effects of the creative bug is promiscuity.
Many creatives start out in a particular field of speciality, and almost all end up with fingers in many pies. From graphics to fashion, animation, 3-D, textiles, music and poetry ....... It would seem that we admire creativity in all its many forms, and appreciate its ability to allow self expression, challenge and most importantly the opportunity to share. Each new creative talent acquired can bring such satisfaction and a sense of achievement as another piece of the creative puzzle is discovered, you can mistakenly begin to feel complete........ almost
I myself im currently flirting with the idea of designing cushion covers and hair accessories, whilst fondling my guitar as i try to maintain my secret romance with poetry......

Lord have mercy I can relate to this. I've gone from the graphic design, to writing, to fashion, to music, to theater and beyond. I wanna do it all :) I think it's a gift nonetheless but has crippled me a bit when it comes down to what I really wanna do. Creative promiscuity is such a good term for this. Liked your blog so I decided to comment it :)
