I saved this quote about creativity from one of Phillip Pullman’s books in the trilogy of His Dark Materials (I think it is from the book of the Amber Spyglass).

She wasn’t sure what she wanted to do, except that she knew that if she fooled around for long enough, without fretting, or nagging herself, she’d find out. She remembered quoting the words of the poet Keats to Lyra, and Lyra’s understanding at once that that was her own state of mind when she read the alethiometer - that was what Mary had to find now.

That description of the process of figuring out something in a creative way is very inspiring to me. To some extent is what I am doing with this website. Sometimes I just know I want to write though I’m not sure exactly what the end goal is. I am just happily following a gut feeling.
