I love the term multi-passionate self, I can relate to it wholeheartedly. I’ve dabbled with so many creative endeavours in my life and have never been the person to just engage with one. Even now that my major creative passion is writing, I still have other passions and don't want to write every single day. I need those other passions like gardening to stay inspired and refreshed.

You’ve put that so perfectly, Alex. I thought it was my fault that I struggled to be creative in just one way, eg writing. Now I realise it’s the way I’m made.

Beautiful photography … excellent reflections on a creative life. And, as JoJo and I are throwing ideas around for our interrailing next year (tickets now bought), the reshare of the Berlin article is so timely.

Great post, lots of interesting forks in paths here - and some bush bashing which feels like a bit of a metaphor for your combined creative outlets…
