I used to write and want to keep it going in the same direction no matter what. I’d have the initial idea and no matter what else occurred to me I wouldn’t veer off; I was limited in this way. Not to mention the cultural norms that were really barriers to my creativity, only allowing me to access so much in the first place. Now that I have access to more and I’m more willing to go off in another direction, my possibilities for artistic direction have multiplied.
