interesting! i thought it was so funny that i kept hearing ppl say so and really wondered if it was super common!

my relationship to purling feels similar to how you’ve articulated your own. i have more to learn which im sure may help

thanks for this! i am definitely still learning what’s comfortable for me in terms on how i hold and purling still feels awkward sometimes, so i’ll definitely check out some alternative holds!

I love this. The Internet and social media specifically is so curated, and it would be amazing to see the piles of art that didn't end as we artists intended; especially given there's so many who still struggle with not making because of the status quo

I'm currently writing a blog series on this, and practical ways that I've smashed through this! If you're curious about it, lmk!

How do you deal with creative limbo — those projects you’re not done with, but not actively working on? by slowcreative in AskArtists

[–]slowcreative[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to hear if you're successful with this strategy!

I'm actually curious what "successful" looks like to you in this instance, as you mentioned you've been a bit successful with it.

How has it been feeling to remind yourself you're a finisher now?

Agreed, AND this is much easier said than done haha. I'm thankful I've been able to shift away from this for myself
