A question about selling creativity.

[thelinesoflearning]

So hey. People who make any kind of regular money off selling things they can do. Particularly creative things (extra particularly word things), but anything, really. Tarot, coding skills, whatever, I'm sure there are things I can't think of.

How do you beat down the feeling of "I don't deserve to be paid for this, I'm not good enough, there's got to be someone better out there you could get this from"? Or ignore it? Or however you defeat it enough to actually put price to things?

Being in the position where I am considering putting a DONATE button on my various web presences, I can empathize with you here. I do not want to open commissions per se, because I feel I am NOT THAT GOOD. But at the same time, I've read some who write for donations (original) that are far worse with character and even plot than I am. (Which says a lot because I know I fail Plot One oh One)
