Once again Clint, thank you for finding this, and also sharing it. The last few days, most of this applied to me! After 45+years, I was in a nose dive, but last night with a massive storm (lightning and thunder) I attached all the "junk" to it, and let it rip!! ...and was "free at last"...and then YOU CAME ... What a blessing! Thank you!!

Love to hear it. I think ‘content’ affects all of us artists whether we use paint, celluloid, pen or instrument.

Nice to get all of those reminders...I guess that some of us may not really need them!

This was very much a ‘notes to self post’ because I have fallen foul to a lot of this. To anyone who has swerved this stuff I say ‘hats off’
