Normal Post: Way of the Pear



I usually have the 'creative satisfaction' feeling, far, far, FAR too early i.e. when I haven't actually created anything yet. Specifically, I'm quite bad for sketching something out, and then, subconsciously or otherwise, convincing myself that that constitutes the end of the process and a justifiably satisfactory conclusion, as opposed to something 1/4 finished. That's not necessarily a bad thing - as much as anything else, it keeps bad ideas out of ciculation without the terrible anguish of admitting to myself that they were bad ideas in the first place.

But, as to the pear, planning something out prior only seems to worsen the aforementioned problem, in that the planning stage itself often becomes the source of satisfaction and subsequent conclusion. Planning to draw something/go somewhere is just as good as doing it, according to my inner drives. Myriad benefits, though a terrible, boring, boring fate awaits.
