Yes, this is definitely me. I love the term and I'm so happy that I now know what to call myself. I spent so much of my life feeling like a failure if I tried something and then didn't have a clear-cut result from it. That's what this world tells us we need to do. Now I'm learning to trust my creativity and pursue my passions and just let them be, without justification or a result. Love this article. Thanks for writing.
I love this. The beauty of the magpie method is something I frequently bring up.
I’m right with you there! And so many people on Substack have the same method, maybe without realising it!

Thanks for the lovely comment Amra!
Brilliant Cecilia! Consoling and encouraging. (He says while working on his first novel)

Oh, it definitely describes me, and a whole lot of my creative friends!
Time to kick off the new art Renaissance, fellow magpies! <3
(...Right after I pick up this shiny new thing to hoard...and this glittery new thing to also hoard...and...) XD XD XD
It’s definitely a thing, isn’t it! Nice to know you’re a fellow member of the Creative Magpie Club!
