‘And by the way…’ Sylvia Plath on the worst enemy to creativity

Posted on February 19, 2017 by russtowne

Self-doubt is an enemy I know all too well. Beneath it is fear, and like all forms of fear, I found it is only beaten by facing up to it and doing what needs to be done. Fear has no chance against doing the right thing over and over again.

With Love,
