Creativity goals

I’ve decided that I want to be more creative for 2023. And the first thing I do is check out what qualifications I can do. I have signed up for more Rockschool grades (vocals and piano) and have already checked out some masters degrees (Nordoff Robins do a Music Therapist course near my home in Manchester, however getting up to Queen Margaret University in Edinburgh is doable by train).

Why am I like this?

I think I need validation for being an artist. There is a whole bunch of being fed up about being self taught and How I would like to learn officially and in a valid way but mostly I think it’s seeking validation for being an artist for creating valid art.
