Hello, friends! Here is the second video in my new series, “Creative Hurts and How to Heal Them.” This one is all about that scary bugbear, CRITICISM. How do we handle it? Is there such a thing as “good” criticism? How do we put it in perspective?
I also share my own story of receiving what turned out to be crippling criticism – in the sense that it shut me down as a poet for about two years – and what helped me heal and get back to my ongoing love affair with poetry.
I hope so much that you find it helpful and encouraging!
