Write more about chronic play!! I feel like i’m not being very creative with my writing. The photos, yes. But the writing, I feel like I could just be so much more playful and experiment. I was doing it at one point and now I’m kind of just getting through it. I’d love to think a little bit about how to be more playful. It’s hard to be playful when you just feel like there’s so much to do!

Hey, Cali Bird, one of the reasons I peak-in here is that I spend the great bulk of my creative energy writing for work, which is satisfying, but the cabinets full of ideas for personal writing projects go unattended. That said, my work is important to people such as you and your husband. My partner also suffers from a brain injury, as well. She uses my company’s products daily or she is otherwise dysfunctional with pain. I’m not on substack to promote product, and I’m not sure how you could share a shipping address with me, but I would be happy to send you and your husband product to try. Be well, thank you for being here for me.

Oscar Wilde said we all kill what we love, and I fear I have killed my writing. Not forever, of course, but what I mean is that I have perhaps been focusing on the unhelpful aspects of writing instead of my love for it, my love of doing it. So I am in a contemplation of that.
