Well written. I needed to read this. I’ve been in the loop of putting myself down while applying for an artist residency. ‘My process only engages me and won’t resonate with others… why even try’ so of negative thinking.

Thanks for writing this. I’ve moved away from having one journal to record my ideas and instead put them on whatever surface they may land. I like to revisit and compile them long after they’ve been jotted down. When I come back to them I view them with much less criticism.
