Whenever I get that low energy, despondent and despairing way I turn to maps/visual representations of information -- be they historical, contemporary, groundbreaking, whimsical, or deep world-building -- and I try my hand at the latter fictional kinds. Each time I get in this mood, I return to my notes and files. Over the years, I've built up and torn down and built again but always got to feeling better and ready to re-engage with the world.
Working currently on making a mystical mountain.
