This writing session was fun and easy, even though I was exhausted. I wish I had a better grasp on what makes a writing session fun/easy and what makes it hard. I suspect some of it has to do with whether I'm writing something that really interests me. (And that makes me wonder, "Well, shouldn't the whole thing really interest me? Why write it otherwise?") I think there are other factors too, though.

This is something that is much different between writing and the projects I do. Drawing is much shorter term, anywhere from a few minutes to about a week for most of the things I've done. I can relate though to having to make myself work on a piece, almost always this is when I've agreed to do something for someone else that doesn't really interest me. On my own things, there's always parts of a piece that I enjoy more than others, eyes for example.

From what I've read of writers talking about process, I don't think you're alone in that at all.
