Climbing the creative mountain - Talking creativity and inspiration from real life with Stine from @Stinestregen

I am a big, longtime fan of Stine. She began with a daily webcomic that I loved to read every day. Now she has published several books, comics, journaled diaries and even a crochet book. She also has a daily comic strip in a big Danish newspaper. We talk about imposter syndrome, climbing the mountain of hard work, and riding the rush wave from doing all the things you just told yourself you could not do.
