Love your insights about creativity. Artist Mark Horiuchi suggested focusing on the artistic process... the artwork is residue.

This was a great read.

Sharing my art has always been something I’ve been scared of, for many of the reasons you mentioned. But of late - especially seeing I have my own substack - I feel I am getting better at managing this fear. And some of the insights in your piece certainly helped. Thank you.

Thank you Michael! Sharing art is vulnerable and I'm glad to hear about your Substack. I've experienced different fears in sharing a variety of art with the world and have learned that through all, the best way to manage that fear is to just share it. It's like exposure therapy for sharing art.

Thank you! I wrote this piece at a writers workshop meetup where we had 3 sprints of writing. It’s always fun to find new places to be creative too - while writing about creativity!
