That feeling after your 4th edit, when the story you wrote out finally flows cleanly and doesn’t have any snags that will spur an internet argument, then you hit cancel and move on without posting it.
Typing out the comment then delete it is therapeutic, but without the traumatisation of getting piled on.
TBF the home row wouldn't matter. There's enough food stick between the keys that what you press isn't what you get anyway.
"what if nobody wants to listen to it??"
Does not matter bro. Create. Be free
When I did webcomics I was worried nobody would think they were funny or had some reservations about public opinions.
Then I watched some documentary on comic artists, including Calvin & Hobbe’s Bill Watterson, and he said something like “I just make something I think is funny, and if my wife also thinks it’s funny that’s a bonus, and everyone else can think whatever they want to think, but I’m happy with it, and that’s all I really cared about.”
And that was enough for me to get into it.
Make it for you first. Everyone else is a bonus.

I just need one more guitar pedal and the world will be ready.
looks behind him at his guitar corner

Am I out of touch and maybe I have enough already? ... no its the ~~children~~ listeners who are wrong!
I've never listened to a podcast like that. It sounds like low effort reality TV style content.
Others are not you
Impossible.
Don't listen to that guy, I'm definitely you.
Thanks other me. I know me when I see me.
"Man, I'm sorry, they said some pretty harsh things about what you wrote."
Every writer:
"I don't care! Someone actually read it!"
Also art vs content
I mean, the name "creator" is apt. They create bullshit videos out of anything.
Doesn't mean it's good
I average 6 listeners a month on streaming platforms lol. But hey, that’s better than 0. And I do it for the love of music first and foremost.
could you share a link?
Thanks for the interest! Here's my music, with genre tags since I do multiple genres: https://linktr.ee/secondstagenavigator
I made released an album last year, spent the previous year working on it. Probably about 100 listens so far, across all the tracks, but it's fine 🥲 I've been using it like a demo, taking some of the songs to my new band, so they can hear what I had in my head!
Link?
https://jimmyhalliday.bandcamp.com/
Or if Bandcamp's not your bag, I also put them on YouTube, just look up "Jimmy Halliday"!
I listened to that when you posted it up in c/punk!! I love it!
Thanks! I had a lot of fun making it! Though, if I could to go back in time, I'd probably nix a few of the tracks lol
No foolin', that was great. My girlfriend liked it too!
Saved for a listen when I am home.
In my personal experience...nobody wants to listen to it😞
But it's ok! I am my biggest fan😋
I make an "I will listen to your song" post in my group every now and then. Or you can just post it in the group. It's mostly just me posting there. Could use more people :)
I'm the pottery/ceramics world we have the debate all the time about if pottery is a craft or art. Personally I think it's a art that can be functional.
I only make sleepy tunes anyways. My kid is my adience and he loves it. That's enough for me
