Self-care IS Creative support and Procrastination can be too!
#WIPChat #CreativitySupport #NaNoWriMo is ONE day away.

Self-care is another form of creative support and YOU deserve it. Life is hard so get your dopamine reward when you can!

Question 12 What non-writing related forms of selfcare do you enjoy? A walk and favorite café lunch, a bubble bath and glass of wine, a new notebook or novel to read, a cake slice and cuppa, or something else?

A 12 I will get myself a new coffee cup or a half-pound of gourmet coffee. I also will bake a little something something sweet.


Question 13 Do you rank your rewards by goal value? Goal values means you purposely set some goals as having a greater reward (and stress value) than others? You know, the big goal little goal thing.

A 13 I set little and big goals and impossible goals. Rewards, well… See the next question.

Question 14 How do you reward yourself for reaching writing, editing, or other non-writerly goals? Do you PLAN to reward yourself or is it more of a spontaneous reward? Or, be honest, do you forget to reward yourself?

A 14 – Yes, I plan my rewards for my goals but honestly, I usually forget.

Question 15 Do you procrastinate? Procrastination can be Sanity-Care and Self-Care when goals and life are overwhelming.
If you are finding other things to do than write, then it isn’t you; it’s your project, it’s your stress level, it’s our loud world. Don’t beat yourself up if you just don’t feel like writing. Support your creative process by not forcing it.

A 15 Hello, my name is Mama Magie and I procrastinate! Especially when I don’t want to do something (social media *cough cough*) or when I am stuck in a plot place. Sometimes, I just need to let my Muse flit off the plot path because the story flow isn’t working. If my usual tricks for overcoming BLOCK don’t work, then I will switch projects, as proven by the number of times I have abandoned on particular story in favor of another.

Take care of yourself, self-care is important as an aspect of Creative Support.
