I think creating is more valuable than 'creativity' - being a little more clever or tricky isn't overly important. We all find many things in life that we find rewarding, and it's not unreasonable to pursue those - creative pursuits are probably no different. A good read on this subject is the book 'The Novel", by James Michener - definitely check it out, particularly if you're familiar with his work. Cheers Carl Hey Mark,
