Who Says Disorganization is a Sign of Creative Genius?

Apparently, there is some truth to this notion, although I would much rather be organized!

It seems that this has been a subject of philosophical debate. There has been an 'on and off again' controversy with creatives about whether or not your lack of organization caters to or distracts from your creativity. I just know that when I am in the throws of a project (which just so happens to be obsession over this blog right now) I am in the biggest state of disorganization there is. However, and this is a big BUT, I can't start a new project (and I usually live on 3-4 projects at a time on average) until everything is put back in its place and clean. Wow, but this image is my desk as of this week - which is a direct result of this blog! So I have a plan, I will update this blog three days a week (instead of everyday) Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. So hopefully, the next time you see my desk it will appear much more 'tidy'.

So I have a question for y'all. Is 'messiness' the dress your muse finds herself in when your in the throws of creating or is your muse a polished dresser always ready for those impromptu run-ins with the paparazzi?

O.k. so that was as long as I could go...Today is Sunday and I cannot wait until Monday to update my blog!!! So this is a follow-up/quasi-disclaimer announcing that I cannot box myself into any time frame of when it is and isn't o.k. to blog. In fact, having an excuse to write everyday even for 15 minutes is important to me and so I blog when I blog, mess or no mess.
