       wanna get back to cartooning, i just lost the drive to sit down and go through the whole sketching process. wondering if making it easier on myself is the way to go. i have an oekeki, maybe i should use that.

       @serge @mitch I wish I had! I don't have any magic tips, but I can share what works for me. I routinely sketch while I'm having coffee in the morning, I have a sketchbook dedicated to that, so it's always on my desk with a pen (ballpoint for me) ready. I need to have this setup ready, so I prepare it the night before to reduce the friction of finding where the sketchbook is, where a good pen is, and starting something. I also draw whatever I can and allow myself to fail: a test sketchbook. 1/2

       @serge @mitch It's often enough to break the ice for the day between my intimate relationship with my ability to draw. Immediately I know what kind of day I'm having; slightly shaky, unsure and shy line, or full of energy and strong line, or empty brain for ideas. And I can work on that first sketch to fix it.Thanks to that I can draw all day long without being afraid to start. 2/2
