So, the new hours at work involve playing traffic cop of sorts for complaints and incoming reports from my new desk (there are other aspects, but this is the driving force.) Which means managing both cops and calls. There's plenty of downtime, it's just not scheduled downtime, as at any moment I'm dealing with one issue or another and then dealing with nothing for an extended period of time.
I'm going to try and use those unscheduled moments of calm for creative purposes. No idea if it will work or not - or if it works how well it will work, but as I eat my meal at my desk anyway I figure the moments in between are mine to take back if I can ;)
Item write ups, monsters, random lists - lets see if I can accomplish anything...
What ever happened to those White Star 4-pagers?
ReplyDeleteThe good news: yes, it's absolutely possible to be creative during unscheduled breaks in the action. The bad news: you might get distracted in the real world if your mind is regularly wandering to realms of fantasy and science fiction.
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, it's worth it. "Reality" can take a number. Good luck!
What about your 4 Page Whitestar Idea?
