This is very true. Everything you want to learn about any art or craft is freely available on YouTube. The problem is, you then have to do the work, which is the sticking point for many.

A tweet by Jess Owen which reads:

Al didn't democratize art.

Artists did.

Free YouTube tutorials, sketch pages, advice blogs, works-in-progress, mentorship, AMAs, process videos. Sharing materials, stock references, resources, and technique. These are freely available to anyone who wants to learn.

Just recorded an amazing (& very cathartic) podcast session with the amazing @kevharrison.bsky.social - covering, among other things, the challenges self-branding & social media present to writers who’d rather just stay in a cupboard or wear a bag over our heads… Can’t wait to share it!
