Creativity is the answer

Morning Pages | 18/19 May 2026

I thought that leaving the posts until the end of the day would give me a chance to add some typed text about whether I’d achieved what I set out to do in my writing, but evenings aren’t good for posting and I forgot. So you get two days’ worth of writing today. It’s still not a wall of text, so I don’t feel too bad about it. Plus, I got to report on whether I achieved Monday’s goals in today’s writing, so I guess I’ve got that covered.

Tune in tomorrow to see whether the Ellington fountain pen will dry out with the different ink in it.
