i know you work alone, I get that. but have you ever tried creating with another person? The biggest advantage I take out of this is because it is more fun, to laugh with another one. keep up the good work! love you
trust me, the only reason i work alone is because i have to. i spent years and years thinking you were "supposed" to collaborate, and that i was just messed up for not being able to make it work.  i knew i "could" do it alone, but i thought it was frowned upon. and i knew it would certainly be more enjoyable and less lonely to work together with someone. but i very rarely found anyone i could work with, and i tried many many times to collaborate and failed miserably. i just always wanted to take it to mars way too quickly. no one would really take me seriously. while the whole time i thought i was the one being serious.  finally i saw an interview with a very successful songwriter about collaboration, and he said "i actually don't collaborate well. one of the reasons i like songwriting is because it's something you can actually do all by yourself."  that's when i finally stopped feeling guilty about it, and that's when the real work started. ever since then everything has been going fine, although i am still lonely
