Protecting the Inner Child -

Just read Steven Barnes’s “The Hero’s Dead-End Journey” a powerful cautionary tale about how writers (specifically) or artists (generally) kill their creativity.

I try to encourage people to enjoy and have fun with creating and not worry about market trends, sales numbers and what others think.

However, this post says it better than I could and gives the key tools on how to survive with your creativity in tact and not meet the fate that happens to many who enter the creative journey.

Learn, enjoy then go play.
