Using Art to Get Out of a Creative Funk

For the past couple of weeks I have found myself in a bit of a creative funk, okay a rather big creative funk, especially when it comes to my writing. Part of the slum is due to slow book sales over the summer, that can be very disheartening let me tell you. I have also been dealing with some major health concerns as well, which is zapping my energy in all aspects of my life. Despite pain and a shorter attention span it seems, I am trying to get my creative juices flowing again. This past week I have been trying to use art and painting to get back into the swing of things, and I think that it is working. Here's to hoping that this week I get down to some serious writing!
