Ahh this makes me think of the days of writing a 5000 word book report the night before it was due...
#01. Do you consider yourself the creative "type"? Why/why not? - Yes. I wrote my first poem when I was nine years old and have been writing ever since. It weird but I feel like it was never my choice to be a writer. It was something I was born with and my brain absolutely will not let it go unused. #02. What is/are your creative outlet(s)? -My only real creative talent is writing. #03. a) Do you believe creativity is infinite, or does it come and go? -For me, I know that I have the ability to create something every day if I make it a priority. b) How much time do you dedicate to your outlet(s) on a daily basis? -I like to give myself little writing challenges that can be completed in about half an hour each. That way I always have something to show for the end of the day. The finished product becomes the most important thing for that half hour. #04. What is your idea of a "creative lifestyle"? -The fervent need to create is what makes a creative lifestyle. The need to share you work with the world. The idea coming to you at midnight and not letting you sleep until you put it on paper even though you need to be up at 5 am. The passion that fills your head with words and ideas that have to be expressed. #05. Are you a "starving artist"? Why/why not? -I think in a sense I kind of am. I have never defined myself by what I'm doing to make money. If someone asked me what I was I never say Customer Service Rep, it always Well, I'm a writer. Now as far as literally starving for my art, the kind of thing I do is pretty cheap. That being said, I do one day want to make a movie ala Kevin Smith. For that I can honestly say that I would live on ramen noodles and dreams. Finally... #06. What name would you like to go by in my paper? - Um.. Chriss... I guess.
