      Ah, I remember that bit from Julia Cameron. How right she is. I think a lot of fine artists suffer from the block induced by perfectionism (I’m going to put myself in that category). Fear of failing or of doing anything less than absolutely the best (which is, most of the time, bloody impossible) keeps us from doing anything at all.
