Blogging aint easy... for me

I've been running this blog and and posting to it (almost) daily for 2 solid months now. Although feels like longer. It's an exercise to improve my writing, provide free content, and add "value" to my brand. (At least that's what Seth Godin says.) I wish I could think of something interesting to write about my t-shirts & artwork every night but most nights I got nothing. At least nothing that I didn't already write about, and I don't want to write about the same thing over & over. Tonight I've already had this page open for 3 hours before deciding to write about writer's block. It reminded by of this quote I heard, "Inspiration is for amateurs" so I looked it up and it's by Chuck Close:

Inspiration is for amateurs — the rest of us just show up and get to work. And the belief that things will grow out of the activity itself and that you will — through work — bump into other possibilities and kick open other doors that you would never have dreamt of if you were just sitting around looking for a great "art idea". And the belief that process, in a sense, is liberating and that you don't have to reinvent the wheel every day. Today, you know what you'll do, you could be doing what you were doing yesterday, and tomorrow you are gonna do what you did today, and at least for a certain period of time you can just work. If you hang in there, you will get somewhere.
