are some of the most creative people.

Do you fit into this category and, if so, what are you really good at?

I am good at drawing, painting and creative writing.

I'm a writer. I'm also a member of a theater company, ranging from acting/singing to creating sets and props. I also use creativity for my job with kids at church, study film at school, etc. I guess I consider myself an artist....
Thanks for this!

Writing & painting. I'm very creative but I can't always channel it into either of those things...(which is something I'm trying to work on so that my head feels less often like exploding..!)
Thanks for this!

Writing is what I'm best at; but I also draw, paint, sing, & take/edit photos. I'm not really creative unless I'm hypomanic either. Depression makes me not want to do anything & mania is too chaotic to be able to focus enough. : )

I can draw with pencil, colored pencil, pen & ink, scratchboard, create sculptures out of various medium, sew, quilt, and am good at most crafts.

It's easier to list what I don't do: sing, act, charcoal and sculpture that involves reductive carving. I just started stained glass! it requires way less tools than metalsmithing and breaking glass is fun.

Writing. As long as I can remember I've had to start a notebook full of short stories and now a laptop full of stories and screenplays

I used to play trumpet pretty well. I was first chair in college. I haven't really played it much since college though. I did play Reveille to awaken my son in high school a couple times and he did NOT like that.

I can be quite a good writer. I am not very arty by any stretch of the imagination, but intellectually I am quite creative to come up with a plan

When I was young, I sang, and played the piano and clarinet. I also sewed my own clothes. After I got married I still sewed, knitted, crocheted, and did needlepoint and cross stitch and other crafts. I haven't done any crafts for a long time, I'd like to but now I have arthritis in both hands.

My grandpa (undiagnosed BP I believe) painted and played 7 instruments and belonged to the symphony orchestra.
