the creative soul's plague

I'm convinced that everyone with a creative soul is also plagued by insecurity. I don't mean the garden-variety self-doubt that couches questions like, "Do these pants make my butt look big?" I mean the nagging, heart-aching, chewing-on-your-will-like-an-evil-rodent insecurity that makes the creative soul want to wither up in the darkness and throw in the towel. I've spent more than my share of time in that darkness, and it's something that I'll always struggle against. Now, as I'm trying to get Irish Horse Productions up and running in the face of technical difficulties and financial restrictions, the light is dimming. I hope I come out of this with my will to write more or less intact.

See you on the other side...
