I would keep doing what I am doing- painting, knitting, sewing but with the promise of not failing.

I read that as couldn’t meaning mustn’t on pain of existential nightmare (go figure). I would make huge mixed media pieces with poetry and paint

Watercolor painting. I'm just, just, just beginning....and I was in the loo when God handed out artistic talent.

I would love to publish a poetry bundle and finish my book, and thinking about things I believe I can’t create because I am not good in drawing is a picture book for children!

I would love to write a fiction book I think. It's a relatively new thought, so maybe it's a phase, but I'm interested and excited to see how it plays out over the coming years!

Oh, me too. Writing a fiction book has been a dream of mine since I was very little. Little Women made a big impression on me as a child 😂

I mean, it's a classic so I get it!

I would also like to run a successful creative business making and selling something. I've tried it in the past (Craft & Thrift was once a semi-successful secondhand fabric shop for a few years) but would love to sell...I dunno... home sewn things from thrifted fabric? Soap or candles from things I grow in the garden? I don't know but I've wanted that for most of my adult life and tried it in various different guises without huge success so far. Maybe in the future tho?

Either spin - I learned on a drop spindle, but it reactivates a wrist injury so I can't ever do it long enough to get into a rhythm. I'd love a spinning wheel but don't have room.

Otherwise keep learning French. I can read it, but after a few decades of studying it, I still can't speak because my nerves get in the way
