finding a creative voice
Well, I've finally done it.
I set myself up a newsletter on Substack and I've written my first few articles (only the first is currently live), but this was enough to make me realise what I wanted to use the newsletter for.
Aside from a more professional outlet for my frustration around my 9-5 than this blog is, I wanted to be able to encourage myself to explore my creative voice and how creativity is used to combat fear.
I've spoken about the courage that comes from creativity before in this article but I want to be able to expand on that, delve into my fear around using my creativity to build a life of freedom for myself. I admit, it's a scary thought and I am feeling a lot of mixed emotions around it all. But I'm motivated and inspired and I do hope that the words I'm writing there will help other people who are also concerned with finding their creative voice and fighting fear to build a life of freedom.
I don't generally do the whole self-promotion thing, but aside from the first article, which I was using as a trial to see if I wanted to hear in more of a 'content' direction (I don't), I'm genuinely pleased with the articles I've got coming out over the next few weeks.
In terms of this blog, I still intend on writing here as well. This sort of morphed into more of a journal for myself than anything else. I have no intention of changing that really, there's a lot more freedom for experimentation on here and I do love the new look of the blog, so I don't intend on going anywhere.
Feel free to check out the newsletter, who knows maybe some of my writing can help you if you're struggling with the same things as me.
Enjoy this?
