Inspiration is so frustrating sometimes! If I just wait for good ideas to come to me, they never do, but if I look too hard for them, I also wind up just burning myself out on something that's bad and not speaking to me anyways.

The good stuff comes to me in an in-between state that's kind of hard to cultivate intentionally-- like morel mushrooms.

#this is specific to songwriting for me lol-- narrative and visual art ideas pop into my head distractingly often #substances kinda help? kinda easier for me to find a groove then cuz I can hear Everything #i have a lot of like. files on my computer that are just 4 bars of Fluff that i don't know how to extend #but occasionally i'll come up with something i'm able to Hook into and pull apart and extrapolate and build upon #and i'm trying to figure out what the difference is between the ideas that make it and the ones that don't
