oof. and then they wonder why artists are often reclusive.

We are creatives, not consumers, and we get consumed

def feels like being the product

If I would do it again, I would use a anon name instead of my real name

It helps when people approach, if they call you by you anon name, you'll instantly know where your relationship starts and ends

That would help alleviate some of the pressure

same. I mean, I kinda tried but also did want to be known. there are some sacrifices that have to be made, I guess.

It's one of the reason I don't like meeting known people because I know they have limited energy to give and I don't want to take anything from them

if there's something they can offer, I'm sure it's not a big deal. sounds like you value connection even if it's hard to connect sometimes. you'd be surprised at how many well-known people can sense that.

Space is the best gift you can give someone

Being around them is enough sometimes
