be content…
I’m trying to remind myself to be content with the way things are just now, but I’m not finding it very easy. It seems that the more I’m able to do, the more I want (or think I ought) to do. Yesterday, as I was lighting the fire, I glanced under the sofa and saw more »

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.

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