Love this. The fertiliser graveyard analogy especially resonates. I cleared up my cupboard and chose to keep some of my old art (that made me wince ) in that same hope :)
ah thank you. I also cringe when I look at old work, and usually don't. But even if i don't look at it again, the process of working at it and failing helps I think, and those ideas make their way into new work.
So much to love here. Thanks for taking the time and replying to my note. I will be keeping the games analogy, the stubbornness and the thoughts on comparison, close to me.

I’m glad this made sense. Sometimes I feel like I can’t really express what it feels like to write, to be a writer.
