Dear Creative Souls,

It’s 2 AM. I should be asleep, but instead, I’m scribbling ideas in the dark, trying not to wake the house. One project leads to another. An unfinished poem turns into a film concept, a painting morphs into a book. My mind is a carousel that never stops turning. Sound familiar?
