I felt much the same way. I wish I had more creative energy at the weekend for these kinds of things... But then I remember that I actually have a much more creative job than most people and my creative energies are spent from 9-6 Monday to Friday (I work in movies). I've found MUCH more peace and pleasure in my "consumption hobbies" like watching tv, reading, playing linear story games that don't require me to be particularly creative and learned to stop being so hard myself for not having a hobby where I'm actively producing something like writing a book or making a game. Weirdly when I have a quiet period at work and am not so creative for 2-3 months I get the urge to pick up creative hobbies again. I've come to realise for myself that I have a measureable amount of bandwidth to create and a measureable amount of bandwidth to consume and they seem to be seesaw'd together. |
