I was reading a book by Lynda Barry called Blabber Blabber Blabber: Volume 1 of Everything. Early in her career, she decided to mail out comics she created to her fellow peers. I was inspired by how she connected to others in her field.
It got me thinking about how as a creative there's so much pressure to have a good-looking social media profile complete with perfectly polished work. But the downside is that there's this element of interaction with the content that can have negative mental effects and can lead people, like myself, to only post what we think is worthy of receiving admiration, in the form of likes and comments.
So I thought, let's do what Lynda Barry did with her creative friends. But instead of physical mail, doing it in an e-mail newsletter.
If you want to join a community of creatives that are sharing work that is good, bad and ugly, without the pressure of it getting likes on social media.
