Content

Actually, after the last post, I feel even worse. Now I not only feel like a lousy content creator, but also like a whiner.Still, don't worry, this post wasn't meant as a hint that I'm planning to leave. At least for now, I don't have any thoughts like that. It's more just a stream of consciousness, a desire to speak my mind. Maybe it's even just a selfish wish to get some support, like, 'No! That's not true, you're amazing! We love your content!' just to stroke my fragile ego.I'm probably being quite open, maybe even too much, and I'm not sure how appropriate these reflections are when I'm just an ordinary creator of porn pictures. Maybe even this self-flagellation is just a way to evoke pity, I don't even understand myself how sincere this is.Anyway, I'm not quitting, everything's fine. Sorry for cluttering up Patreon with garbage posts again

I think as long as you enjoy what you are doing that's all you need. There is a reason people often say "Comparison is the thief of joy"., there will always be someone who has put in more hours, is more naturally talented, etc. Using others Art to set goals for yourself is a healthy way to improve, but more so tied to your creative process (ex: I want to improve my lighting, or posing) not some arbitrary amount of likes a piece receives. Don't let numbers determine your self-worth as a person/creator. I think it's easy to get caught up in that. Sometimes you need to almost step back and think about "What's a couple of hundred people in a room look like?" that's a full High-school Gym or a Smaller Concert venue, and if you asked everyone in there they said they liked your art. That's a ton of people!
