Don't let the title fool you - this is exactly what I'll be talking about.
You may have a new idea or a new book you want to get out there. But, you feel hindered because everyone else is doing the right things: buying bookmarks, showing up at events, launching book ideas that just so happen to be like yours. It's a daunting position to be in. We all want our ideas to soar. Yet what do we do when we get cornered in our thinking? Sometimes we can compromise ourselves and our circumstances.
In this episode, I'll be talking about this very (perhaps dark) thing that can occur along our creative journey and how we can combat it.
Oh, and a nice little plug for the Ten Commandments in here too.
