Random doodles sometimes turn into abstract doodle critters having a doodle critter get-together. .

This one came as a surprise! It reminds me of an archaeological dig. 🖍
This is what happens when you let your inner 4-year-old inhabit the tip of the pen and give her free rein! You never know what will emerge. It’s always a fun surprise. 😊

Taking a break from knot doodles, letting the tip of my pen take the reins. I imagine letting my inner 4-year-old inhabit the tip of the pen and go where she wants. THAT is playing in the creative sandbox, where there is no wrong (Guidepost #1!) and I’m free to think process, not product (Guidepost #2!)
🖍
There are 10 Guideposts in all. I cover all of them in my book, The Creative Sandbox Way™, with fun writing and doodling activities you can do right inside the book! 🖍🖍🖍 🖍

Knot doodles! After spending the morning taking visual notes, my brain needed a break, so I spent the rest of Creative Sandbox Playday doodling. 😊

This Mantra May Sound Depressing, But It Really Helps
![Doodle icon: Trust [multiple instances of a doodle of two hands shaking, with energy rays extending out from them, with the word "trust" underneath each doodle]](https://melissadinwiddie.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Doodle-trust-190116-300x300.jpg)
I woke up on Tuesday last week, got undressed to take a shower, and was horrified to see huge, red, raised welts all over my thighs, the size of miniature roadkill hamsters.
Seriously, my legs looked like topographical maps of Middle Earth.
If I had not been recently diagnosed with eczema, I probably would have had a cardiac arrest.
As it was, I had a mild panic attack, because my eczema up until that point had been limited to my face and neck, so to have it spontaneously — BAM! — erupt ALL OVER my thighs was shocking, to say the least.
“Will I be miniature-roadkill-hamster-leg-woman forever?” wondered my brain. [Read more…]
