Finding it near impossible to write speculatively whilst waiting for news on the projects I have sent out into the void. I wonder how much time Carl Sagan lost to thinking about whether anyone had listened to Voyager’s golden record yet.

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
