LCN 055: How NOT to Tell If You’re a Real Artist

I want to talk about something that has made a lot of creators feel pretty badly about themselves — including me!

I wrote about this on the blog last year (click here to read the original article), and I thought it was a good time to revisit this topic, because I know somebody out there needs to hear this.

If you’ve been wondering whether you’re a real artist, because you can’t honestly say, “I can’t NOT make my art,” or “I can’t NOT write,” or “I can’t NOT do my creative thing,” then this one is for you!
