It’s a bit of an extra burden to know that you are creative, and an artist, and the world is trying to put your square peg into a round hole, but so critical to do it your way. 
Oh I love this so much, I've been reading The Artist's Way recently and have been trying to put it into practice as well. I am at a transitional point in my life right now and reading this is making me feel less afraid about change and look forward to the next phase, whatever that may be. Thank you for writing this, Heather!
Lovely piece of art in itself, this text. I resonated so much with your story; I guess the best stories are the personal ones that manage to become universal, like this one. And your art is making me dreamy, a great precursory moment before I start to write for my own literary projects. :) Thank you for sharing, Heather!

I am feeling the same way! This was a perfectly timed read. I’m excited to take on 2023 with a new approach informed by recent revelations. 😊🥂💃🏻
