Sometimes a new idea is just a distraction. Other times, it seems to be pointing somewhere worth following. I’m beginning to wonder whether my different creative projects are really separate at all, or simply different ways into the same ongoing conversation.

I started wondering whether creativity really stays inside neat little boxes. Can making something with our hands quietly change the way we think, write, or approach other creative work?
