Burnout, burnout, burnout

I must admit that I have not been able to recharge my batteries lately,
so my output of poetry has ground to a halt. I don't have a lot of
creative downtime; my current life doesn't seem to be too accomodating
to that outside of gaming.
Suggestions? Be nice, or you'll set off an already sore inferiority
complex..

Hm. Perhaps I'll start a different game.
Also, I tend to find that my creative juices go down in December and January,
and usually start recharging in February or March. It's a winter thing, for
me, I guess.

stuff's been sluggish around here since autumn. I, also, am trying to boost
activity (I brought us a new playmate, Rebecca). (;

Only the new playmate is completely incapable of producing a coherent game
tonight. Errr... I'll work on it?

Natalie Goldberg suggests that taking in new experiences should be your first
priority if you want to have a well of ideas to draw on. Of course, she's
also a big fan of "making time to write," but I'd go even further and say it
might be more important to see and do new things than it is to schedule time
to sit down with a pen and paper. New things inspire you, and inspiration
makes you damn well _find_ time to write; but staring at a blank page is
nothing but a drain.
