Be kind to yourself creatively

This post is mainly about original characters

So I wrote this sentiment in a collection of tags on a different post, but I wanted to actually write it all down in my own post.

This is the post that triggered my ramble.

On that post I put in my tags something along the lines of sharing your ocs with others helps you grow them because someone might highlight something you hadn't thought about before, which then leads to character growth. I think it then also spiralled me into saying something about making comparisons, and that when I was younger I would often find myself comparing whatever original works/characters/art I had created to other people's and that it stunted my confidence and therefore my creativity.

I suppose the reason I'm rambling about this is because I have been creating original characters for, gosh, years now and I have had a lot of time to make mistakes and I hope that I can offer advice to people who might be starting out or are just feeling a little low about their work!

So, here goes, with the full capacity of my lungs:

BE KIND TO YOURSELF CREATIVELY.

Or you'll catch a rogue Goose coming for your knees-

Seriously, be kind, because everyone has to start out somewhere and I will put money on it that no one starts out with a perfectly developed original character or works.

You're allowed to take baby steps.

You're allowed to be rough around the edges.

Never compare whatever you create to anyone else because we are all walking a different path. You may compare your newly born original character to one that has been worked on for years and therefore the comparison is unfair!

Even then, even if you compared two equally fleshed out characters to each other, the comparisons would still be unfair; you know why? Because they are individuals. No one character is the same and creativity is SUBJECTIVE.

So please, whether you've been making original characters for a long time or have only just started, remember this:

Be kind to yourself

Walk your creative path at your own pace <3

The holy solidarity between two mobility aid users who both need the accessible toilet, and the godly grace the person I pressed the Door Open button on before they had the chance to lock the door <3 peace and love on planet cripple (they were so kind and understanding)

me (drunk): listen the hottest thing about astarion besides all the murder IS the laugh lines. all of you drawing him with no laugh lines or crows feet are weak and will not survive the winter. let him be 40something and let yourself have an older man sexual awakening. it's beautiful here

Something I can appreciate about the female characters in narcos is how ride or die they are because if my husband was in the DEA and then was like “hey we need to move to Colombia so I can help catch the most dangerous cartel in the world and I might die but maybe not” I would’ve been like FUCK NO

Worst possible feeling: Needing a source for The Thing and knowing you read The Thing in one of your books but not being able to remember which one or find the topic in any of the indexes.
