A friend pointed me to Daily Routines, a site on "how writers, artists, and other interesting people organize their days."
Very interesting, not to say inspiring, to get a peek into creative people's creative processes. What really goes on in the everydays of great artists? It's creative stalking-- being let in on secret lifestyles that follow no real order or structure. I'm reminded of the Blink premise-- take 10 minutes to look at a person's living space and you'll have a pretty reliable gauge of who or how that person is.. And they do say genius art is not a show of skill as much as it is an extension of the artist's personality...
Mind the categories that site uses:
Drinkers! Procrastinators! Night Owls! Exercisers! Nap takers! How validating to know my own habits are spot on for creative output... :P
Reminds me of a coffeetable book I have on Filipino artists at home--such inspiring voyeurism to see other people's creative space! Another blog that collects creative habits: On my Desk, ARTISTS, ILLUSTRATORS, DESIGNERS & CREATIVE FOLK SHARE THE STUFF ON THEIR DESKS...
