ebook: Creating While Caring: Practical Tips to Keep Creating While Caring for a Loved One

Keep creating, even when caregiving takes everything you’ve got.

If you’re caring for a loved one while trying to hold onto your writing, art, or other creative work, you already know the struggle: exhaustion, interruptions, guilt, and the creeping fear that your creativity is slipping away.

You don’t need another time-management lecture or productivity hack that ignores your reality. You need strategies that actually fit the caregiving life.

In Creating While Caring, author Donn King—writer, teacher, and long-term caregiver—shares practical, hard-won insights for weaving creativity into days that never go as planned. You’ll discover:

• How to protect small but vital pockets of creative time
• Ways to reframe guilt and fight the myth that creativity is selfish
• Simple tools to keep momentum alive, even in chaos
• Encouragement for when the well feels dry and the burden too heavy

Most of all, you’ll find hope: that your creativity and your caregiving can coexist—and even feed each other.

Creating While Caring is not about “balance.” It’s about persistence, renewal, and refusing to give up the part of yourself that makes you you.

Because your creativity deserves care, too.
