- Getting inspired at the least expected moment and telling yourself ‘please not now, brain I have nowhere to write all this..’ and then completely forgetting what could have been the most amazing piece in your portfolio!
- Socializing is so difficult when you catch your self day dreaming 90 percent of the time..
Sorry what are we talking about?
Oh yes.. - Failure is just not an option when you can treat it as ‘experimental’ work and just another lesson learnt.
- That secret stash full of old boxes, scrap pieces of felt, broken jewelry and old wrapping paper… Because you just never know when the most amazing ideas start filling your head and you just wouldn’t want to miss an opportunity.
- When you’re told to get a real degree because you do art drama or dance…
- Working all night on a piece because you just absolutely fell in love with an idea, and wanting to bin it the next day.
- Life is not easy when you see potential in every little scrap of paper.
- When people confuse your creative thought process with procrastination…
- Boundaries? What boundaries? 😉
- Throwing a massive ‘hissy fit’ when you find out that your idea is already an idea..
That’s all guys! Let me know what your creative struggles are and if you can relate to any of these!
Love,

1. Your creative ability supersedes any friendship. As others cannot relate to oneself.
2. The inability to act upon this creative nature because your ideas are far fetched and complex to grasp.
3. Developing new pieces of literature for your own happiness but not allowing others to delve into your world of madness.
4. Jumping to ideas and linking real life to those situation. Thus confusing those around you.
5. Feeling an extremity of happiness rushing through once you’ve acquired a ‘trophy’ which fulfills your creative desires.
6. Achieving that one piece of literature that expresses you. A self reflection hidden within the mirage.
7. A simple answer to a question becomes another novel.
8. Keep old memories alive by rewriting literature as if oneself is reliving the moment in question.
9. The moment of euphoria when you banish your morning blues and you can think like a train.
10. Feeling of death when truth comes to haunt you. Words never lie in the instance of literature.

Wow! Thank you for that response Indigo. There are so many things you have touched upon such as memories, self expression, and not being able to write exactly what you mean because it is too complex.
As an artist I can completely sympathise with these points!
Art can be beautiful or confusing and chaotic but as long as it is true to you, i think that is all that matters.
Thank you for taking your time to respond:) All the best with your poetry!
Love,

My biggest struggle by far is attempting to fit in with the world.You know, to do a “normal” job or somehow carve any sort of “career” It sometimes eats me alive and I laugh at the ridiculous idea of that we have to do the same things our whole lives. Unfortunately I cant finish anything so I just tend to go here and there doing different things. I suppose the most important thing is that we just keep playing, it will probably stop us from getting old and stuck in our ways!
But you know there’s nothing I can do about it, as ive got a little wiser ive just tried to pick my friends carefully and to spend more time around people who are open, kind and enriching. People who probably enjoy looking like a twat as much as I do or maybe those who laugh a little when you look like one but love you more for it. Hope youre good Kazz. Good blog. Youll never guess where I am. Im in poland teaching english!

Awh Rob! Im so glad to hear you’re in Poland! I hope you enjoy it! There is so so much to see in Poland! Hope you and the family are doing good!
And I completly understand about not being able to finish one thing and starting another (as me dropping out of uni proves) but I do think, just as you, that every creative person will forever try to ‘make things better’ as possibilities are endless and we just dont seem to can stick with one thing when there is a whole wide world full of inspiration out there!
So much to learn in one life time ay!
Great to hear from you, hope things go great for your family in Poland
Love,
