    I'm Michael Nobbs, an artist, blogger and tea drinker (not necessarily in that order).

    I'd like to show you that it is possible to stay creative even when energy is in short supply, and how working on small creative acts on a regular basis can build over time into a substantial body of work (and even a creative career).

    I've written a book called Sustainable Creativity. You're welcome to pay whatever you would like for it.

    Delve a little deeper by becoming a member. If you'd like to delve a little deeper into the material offered here on Sustainably Creative, find out about becoming a member.

    My new book, Getting Your Important Work Done, is currently free for members to download.
