But such strong responses from your audience and critics leave you in a very open and vulnerable position sometimes. And I would think you still feel a bit overawed by your growing fame and critical acclaim. On one hand, maybe, you feel people are at last acknowledging you as the person you have been struggling to grow into all your life. On the other hand, you'll always have ignorant, or frightened, people acting in a hurtful and negative way towards you. I think what I'm trying to say here is, at the moment enjoy the process of reaching out to people and creating strong responses which make people think and feel. And don't worry about translating it into something concrete. I think, maybe, this might come when you're not swamped by everything else going on. And one day you'll look at your work in a way that will throw light on how you can translate people's responses in the most productive way. Hope this assumption helps :) lots of love xxjenny Fardellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16738691000768891298noreply@blogger.com
