this goes for all creative efforts tbf:
if you can't sing good, sing bad. if you can't write good, write bad. make no first draft, repeat the same words over and over again, skip whole sections because they don't spark joy.
it's good to be proud of your work, but there's value in just making for the sake of making. and if you focus on just having fun, that bit of improvement with every work will just be a bonus.
the world has enough critics. it desperately needs more people creating what makes their soul sing, regardless of whether it sings in tune
In the past 15 years I have been a fan artist, a writer, a comic artist, a musician, a porn artist, a personal website advocate, and a cartoon/anime review writer.
Am I good at any of them? Eh, I'm getting better at them, but I'm nothing to write home about. I like what I make, but I doubt I'll ever make a career out of any of them.
But the POINT is that I DO them all, and I do them the way I WANT to do them.
Because if I didn't, who would?
