so:

for those creative people here, what for you is the best form of creativity for you?

what are you best at- poetry, art, etc?

poetry for me without a doubt- in fact 1 of my poems actually turnedin a rap and use the words as lyrics

My writing is my best. I write stories more than poems usually, but sometimes I am full of poems. It just depends. I also sing, write songs, play the flute and write songs for the flute. Although, I haven't done that in a long time because I need a new flute.

I also draw but it's not my best skill. I'm okay at it.

I come from a highly artistic family on my mom's side, so it's in my blood.

I sing and write; stories as well as poetry. Was singing solos on stage since age 4 and fell inlove with words when I learned to read at age 3. Singing is my #1 talent, but I also kickass at poetry. Its in my blood too, but more so in my brother's, he attributes it to being in the womb longer than usual

My brother can sketch and shred like a pro. He plays guitar, piano and drums and is completely self-taught. I'm actually quite jealous, because he just fiddles with the damn instrument for a few hours, then listens to a song a few times, and BAM he plays it. Then he practices for a few more hours, and he sounds just as good as the artist he "learned" it from! Yeah right, like that qualifies as "learning"...

Here I can't play anything, and not for lack of trying, I even took music as a subject for a while as a child. But when you suck you suck, so I eventually gave up trying He also has a great voice.

Actually, all of my siblings are creative in some way or another my mother's blood is quite powerful

This is exactly my problem. I feel like my real life is pretty boring. "Today I went to work." How exciting is that? If I was a reality t.v. show, I'd be canceled.

I used to write a lot and still do occasionally.

I'm not that creative.
