Wow, that was really good! Thanks for posting about it. I've had many talks with my musician friends about creativity and expressing that creativity and all the feelings and expectations, that come along with it. I'm going to pass this along to some of them.

great! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I want to read her book now too.
I really liked her ideas and her way of expressing them. (I loved her comparison to dobby the house elf, harry potter shout out!)
I think it's something everyone who is creative experiences, and the idea of sharing the credit for better or worse is an interesting one.
