What do you do that is creative?

Postby Matteo » Oct 18, '13, 2:32 am

I use to write poetry although haven't written a poem in well over five months now. I can't draw and fictional writing really hasn't been my thing. I love to make films although that is certainly time-consuming and requires a lot of focus.

How about you?

I wheel out my Photoshop for some GFX now and then and for a period of time I visited a roleplaying website. Also I enjoy cooking if that counts.

I do websites and forums for fun. Though I do it rarely now. When I do do it, it's non-profit and I spend hundreds of hours on it, pouring my soul into it. It's cathartic.

Lots of different things. I used to draw a lot in my younger days, but that made way for writing. I have an interest in Graphic Design so I open Photoshop now and again, but it

Nothing. I would love to be more creative though. I have always wanted to write a movie script. I have tried a few times but have never been able to carry through with and finish it.

I write. I've got my own blog that I use to pine about sports that I watch and use it as a place to publish my work.

I really craved to be good at Photoshop years ago when I was wowed by the GFX work of others but I had a shitty version of PS and never really mastered it so that was the end of that!

Doing creative stuff in general is pretty much my favourite thing to do with my free time. I always seem to have a few things going at a time.

I write quite a bit. I'm currently about a third of the way through my first draft of a fantasy novel. I've done short stories and essays and articles, etc. on the side also. I used to write some poetry when I was younger but I grew out of it.

I write music, predominantly for guitar but sometimes on piano. I play a few other instruments too, but I tend to focus on these two.

I'm not sure if anyone here plays D&D or knows much about it, but I'm the dungeon master for what has become a very long and complex campaign. A lot of creative work goes into this - I haven't used any of the default worlds, so it involves creating an entire world from scratch, along with a massive set of characters and a narrative to tie it all together. Then there is creating battles and play mechanics for each individual game. I've created a pretty vast universe in the game so far and I'm starting on epic tier this weekend.

I've never DMed a game of D&D but I have done two Star Wars campaigns and yeah, you need to create a world that works, buildings, people, creatures, a money system, and than hope that they don't just pass it bye.
