Reclaim Your Vision, Break Through Resistance, and Make Art That Matters This book is not about hacks, habits, or hustle. The Defiant Creative Process is a raw and radically honest look at what it means to keep making art in a culture that constantly pulls you away from it. It's for artists, writers, and creative people of all kinds who are tired of the noise, the self-doubt, the shame spirals, and the endless pressure to produce-or disappear. Through personal narrative, cultural analysis, and lived creative practice, this book explores the real reasons so many of us stall out: not laziness, but resistance. Not lack of discipline, but disconnection. Not a broken process, but a process that's been co-opted by systems that want your work to be safe, sellable, and small. Inside, you'll find: - A reclamation of creative work as resistance, meaning-making, and survival - Permission to work slowly, cyclically, and imperfectly - A dismantling of toxic narratives about productivity, success, and worth - Tools for moving through doubt, fear, and the deep discomfort of making - An invitation to return to your own strange, urgent, necessary vision This isn't a book that tells you how to get more done. It's a book that reminds you why you started. And why it still matters
