how do yall deal with creative insecurity? I can't stop comparing myself to others, then feeling bad that I'm not as 'good' as them.
I'm trying hard to just let myself be doing my own thing, because even if it turns out bad it'll make next time better. but, you know, I really just want the things I make to be good. they're good in my head.
also, I want to ask how yall approach the aspect of writing that is just... actually writing. sentence structure, moving from one little action to the other, figuring out what bridges little bits in a scene. If I ever try to think about an approach to structure, I'm overwhelmed by possibilities, so I tend to approach it just kinda... backing up, letting my mind be looser, and just doing what I can. and it usually comes out kind of flat, which, of course, will just be helped by practice. but still, how do you guys do it?
