Impostor Syndrome — what is it, and how can we, as creative professionals, battle against it?

In 2018, an art teacher wrote in to ask why it was that they could never seem to finish a comic. Brad's response was "Maybe you're not a cartoonist, and maybe that's OK." This week, the art teacher writes back with an update — and it's a doozy!

Questions asked and topics covered...

• Impostor Syndrome
• "Maybe You're not a Cartoonist" Follow-up.
• What's the difference between an aesthetic and a lack of ability?
• No Pants Friday and performative charity
• Minimum requirements for social media
