My Creative Process

I've forgotten something in my creative process. When I was in middle and high school, I collected things on the floor. Pens mostly, which i disassembled and reforged in my own designs. I turned them into heroes and villains that did battle for the flimsiest of reasons. But my best work came about when I had fewer resources. Less pieces equated greater results. It felt like an achievement, pure creation magic when I built from so little. I've dived into the Lovecraft world and there is much to take from but in that deep pool, o forgot that I do more with less. Perhaps I don't need a lot of characters to make a great story. If less is more works for me, why argue with myself? It's something to think about.
