Being creative and making something

All I have learned is:
If you are not  hoping  to make a living from it

 and you have a desire to do it but are unsure how
If you  have no expectations so you are pleased if anything comes out at all or you may feel depressed when you see what you’ve done but you go on anyway
Then after you have taken a lot of photos you  begin to understand what you like.You didn’t know before
[I like to take  still life photos of 2 or 3 objects] You may take 300 before you learn what you like
After you happily spend hours drawing the same objects,  you realise you like to draw two people ir two jugs or two apples next to each  or ,or overlapping   but not flowers or landscapes
You write some limericks and then wonder what might be more interesting.Anything you see with an emotional impact can affect you enough so you want to write about it… make a note.I saw a woman who had been deserted and depressed walking in the snow with two huge dogs which pulled her along and she looked happy again
Just write it any old how
If you find a  place where someone might read it and not be too critical it   helps but I think the big blogging places are not so good for getting much  of the right attention –  some kind  people
 might exist but  a small place might be  better.Or even FB
You might be surprised what comes out when you start.
You don’t know the end when you begin so if you like control it’s  harder.
That should be enough to  begin with.
