All good advice. I am definitely in the "tidy desk, creative mind" camp. Clutter or messiness drives me crazy. Organizing brings me joy. But I seem to be in the minority amongst the writers I know. 🤣

As a musican, I like how we call making music "playing" music. It is fun. It is play most of the time. I think more writers could benefit from this mindset. Make writing "play."

I wish organizing brought me joy! But I do enjoy the result of it. And I like the music/writing analogy, sometimes I wish writing felt more like playing in a band.

So very good to see this today. I'm a highly disorganized older adult whose life conditions challenge orderly use of time available. I sorely needed encouraging vision. Your text and images deftly sort out the essentials. I'm gonna print your post and hang it on my wall. Many thanks. May your day be wonderful.
