Wow, can I ever relate to this, BNLsMOM. Dabble indeed. Often accompanied by some delusional idea of how to do it for real, like all the time and how everyone would want some, because of the sheer fabulousity.

(And if you saw some of them, you'd laugh so hard...) Then the switch would flip and I'd want nothing to do with it and wait for the next big thing to hit. (Always did, and who knew what on earth it would be(!)) I did find one thing and really ran with it. But as the situation currently is, I lack access to one really critical tool, greatly limiting what can be done with it. I'm working on seeing it as an opportunity to get even more creative with it. Working on.) I have found one other form of art that is totally accessible with nearly nothing-- making a creative outlet that is
always available. Yea.
All this is not to be a drag (really, though reading the above may well lead to that conclusion!). Thing is, think about it. You are a jack-of-all-trades. You may probably have thought of this and considered it a negative thing. BUT. Consider how some of those things might be able to be put
together, creating a thing that is not already out there, so to speak. This is the very essence of what original truly
is. What will set you apart and, as you say, when people think of it, they will think of you!!!

And, this ability to bring together divergent ideas is something that BPs have ability in in much higher occurance than the general populace. (Wish I could think of what this kind of thinking process is called -- remember reading about it, but no idea where!)
It may well take some backburner time, or setting some different things together, so that possibilities become a visual revelation, but you may well be very surprised what you come up with! Good luck!
