Creativity Under Capitalism

About Adrianna Nine

Wondering how the hell you’re supposed to balance your creative aspirations with work, societal expectations, and the ever-changing internet?

Me too.

I’m just one writer, but I know other creatives are struggling to make and share their art in a world that demands quick results, corporate-approved (AKA sanitized) “content,” and constant, monetizable productivity. I hear about it all the time—from friends, from fellow writers at my local bookstore, from strangers online.

These aren’t exactly inspiring conditions, but we can enjoy fulfilling and sustainable creative lives nonetheless. It just takes a little…well, creativity.
