The Blackangel Posted July 1, 2022 Share Posted July 1, 2022 I would probably write more. Maybe get back into weaving more. I might even try to learn a few more scripting languages like Javascript. I don't really know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only took on that art of drawing when I was still a kid. I should be around 7 years then when I started drawing just about anything. I drew all of our currency bills. But as I got older, I lost interest in drawing. I'm a poet too but it's been a while since I had penned down any poem. The inspiration isn't there anymore but I hope to get it back one day.

Something I've learned as an amateur author, is that if you don't have the itch to continue writing, you won't be able to write anything good. You have to be in the moment to be able to write. I've written a hell of a lot of unconventional poetry over the years, but I can't sit down and try to force myself to write. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I didn't think about being creative like writing. But I could totally see people taking up the arts, literature and more with video games not being a thing. That makes sense. It would probably make books more popular these days. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly the point. I have tried forcing myself to get right back in it but when I sit down to review what I have done, I won't feel the vibe in it. It would be as it doesn't have a life in it. I tried to compare my old works with the new forced one's and there's a big difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I say I am an "in the moment kind of person", I write as well but only when I have that warm feel I get inside my chest anytime a new inspiration pops in or I just got the right mood for it. I don't force myself to write because I do it basically for fun. Family sedan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly don't know. If car photos magically fell off the face of the Earth that would be a tragedy and would make we want to draw cars again to preserve history. Sometimes I feel unaccomplished and I want to draw a car, but I still don't do it. Some times I get the urge to draw a car and I will do it. In that case it will usually either be a sports car I came up with myself or an old GM car. If I'm at my desk and the inspiration comes I'll draw.

Have you read Rush in the '70's? It's such an awesome read. It talks about the members of Rush and their triumphs and tragedies on the way to stardom. I really like Rush, so I think it's a great read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that about not trying to force yourself to write but you know that feeling when you know that you are good at something but you are seeing it now breaking away from you; so the forcing is just trying to see if you can reignite it back but in the end, it doesn’t give a good result in output as required.

Empire Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Just think what my simple life would have turn into. Maybe I be a famous actor 😛 Then again I.C.T would of not stopped me in regards to that, even if gaming was not a thing. But then again people play games on there PC, so if gaming was not around, PC would not be as they are today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That happens sometimes and this could happen when you haven't done that thing in a long time or take a really long break from it, it would take some extra effort for you to become as good as you were and start doing those things effortlessly again.

Gaming is part of the fun feature around PC, anyone who is a gamer will always fancy the gaming PCs, I never gotten a PC, because I need quality which is the gaming option.
