Trying new things is also a weakness of mine. But- at the same time, I wonder, is it really such a weakness? I am actually glad not to be the type of person that flits around from interest to interest. I need my creative work to stabilize everything in my life, and when you can really dig in to that one thing, it does- I think, anyway :)
I always love reading your newsletter. Your voice comes through so authentically. This is encouraging me to write a list of things I’m good and things I’m not.
I read "photoshoot of 40 new items" and immediately was exhausted by the task! No way anyone could have done that whole list in a day. And I'm impressed even newsletters only take you 3 hours. Also: I think this is a really great writing prompt and going to try to do it myself sometime soon. Thank you as always for writing and sharing.
Really enjoy reading your newsletter--so honest and real. All of us can relate; it feels validating. Thanks for sharing the ups and downs of your journey as a working artist.
This really resonated for me. Turns out we share quite a few similar weaknesses. Feels better to know I’m not alone in some of these daily struggles. 🤎
I vote for including all your creative endeavors in one place. Managing two separate websites sounds exhausting and it makes sense that customers who love your beautiful ceramics might add a piece of your artwork to their home to. Keep it simple and choose the gentle path for yourself. <3

Totally agree and feel the same way!

Oh man- I feel all of this!!

Thanks Dana! I think what I've listed is incredibly common, but it sure feels good to air it out. We're definitely not alone.
