Aww, I love this, Ryan. Little cues to help you start writing are so helpful, especially when you have to work with a less predictable schedule than some of the greats had.
These are some good thoughts. I've never really had a creative space I could control. I usually share a space with somebody else, which requires me to be very flexible in terms of what I do and how I shape the space. However, I am currently taking steps to make the composition lab at my school more artistically oriented. One thing that resonated with me was music! When I write, I tend to listen to full-length albums rather than curated playlists. When I'm at home, it presents more of a challenge, and I have to have a "get it done" mindset when I work. Thanks for the insight into another creative's process!
I love this so much Ryan! As I'm diving back into edits I'm musing on how to make that daily writing habit feel special and significant, especially when I'm doing it at the same desk where I work all day (and often just before or after I've been doing my work)
Thanks, dear friend! Love it! Something I haven't done myself but always remember is how you'd match your kind of tea with the project you're working on!

Thanks so much for reading, Karissa! Definitely - do you have any favorite cues/things you've found helpful as a writer?
Ooh... project-specific playlists are definitely at the top of my list.

I love this! This is getting me thinking... maybe I should try make some habits for my creative space.
