✍️There's a rule of thumb with a work-in-progr

✍️There's a rule of thumb with a work-in-progress: don't show it until it's ready.

✍️Wait until the paint has dried. Give that plot line room to breathe. Brown those cakes for another two minutes.

✍️Buff, polish, shine - repeat. They don't call it 'the big reveal' for nothing, am I right? Not necessarily.

✍️The act of creation is a process, not just a product. It's pure magic unfolding in real time. Well, some of the time.

✍️Mostly creation is messy, and challenging and makes us question our 'why'. That's when we know it’s working.

✍️Mistakes give us direction; advice keeps us humble; sharing the process encourages us to find value in the loose ends and the half-baked.

✍️With that, I've pressed 'publish' on my Substack, WANTED: A Responsible Adult. I started my first blog (I Blog Fashion) in 2008 without giving it a second thought. I plan on doing the same again.

✍️No overplanning. No overthinking. Just a lot of doing and undoing and redoing and creating. Welcome to the process. Do pardon our appearance.

✍️Link in the bio. Be a free or paid subscriber. Hope to see you there.

One of my favourite street art shots from Palermo. The geometry of light against that of the door is intriguing. I'll put it in Stories as the full-length shot really captures it best.
