I have a few small pots on the fire.
One of my close old friends has 2 kids that bracket my kid's age by 1 year each way. We have run two prior tabletop rpg campaigns, and are starting a third. I find the worldbuilding a lot of fun. Even moreso than the playing. This is my primary creative outlet.
I was a pro photographer back in the 80s. These days it's a distant hobby. But my sister now needs some publicity headshots, and I've dusted off the old studio equipment and started planning a shoot for over the fall/winter.
I also do Genealogy. The site "Find a Grave" has folks request photos of remote (to them, local to me) headstones. With the cameras out again, I'm looking at some cemetery shoots while filling the requests.
Genealogy is in itself a bit creative. A bit like writing a mystery novel and solving it at the same time.
Finally, as a nerd, I find smarthome tech interesting. With a disabled relative and a teen kid in the house I try to find ways to make everyone's life a bit less hard. It has involved some "off-label" uses of items and a bit of trial-and-error.
I'd like to spend more time on music. But I'm a perpetual beginner and have never put in enough time to get good at anything.
All these things need to remain small - I have almost zero free time.
