firstly i hope you all had a merry and safe holiday
for those of you that find christmas a difficult time of year its almost over and you have survived another storm, you guys are hardcore
sorry to once again be asking you wonderful people for more help but as a creative community i feel that you'll be able to assist the best.
I am struggling creatively for months (hence the lack of pretty much anything on here) and its bumming me out. for months i have been struggling to shake this feeling that every idea, every character, every setting, every story i create just falls flat. that its all derivative, its all been done before, its not original enough, that nothing that i've created is special. Usually i solve this by starting another project and throwing myself into it but after several failed projects this hasn't worked.
As creators we all suffer with this anxiety from time to time, so i was wondering how you guys deal with it? what's the best way to shake it off and feel normal again? What gets your creativity flowing?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
