Let yourself write badly. You can rewrite later. Paint rotten canvases. You can paint over them. Just do ten minutes at the piano. It’s better than none. Think of yourself as a skittish horse. Keep the jumps small. Julia Cameron.
Everybody who has knitted or done weaving or embroidery knows what an agreeable effect this can have, for you can be quiet and lazy without feeling guilty and also can spin your own thoughts while working. You can relax and follow your fantasy and then get up and say you have done something! Also the work demands patience which , . . . is quite an exercise.
