NIGERIAN DYKE REALNESS
Perfectionism Is A Distraction

In this episode I talk about how sometimes a desire to perfect our art projects masks our fear of judgment or criticism. I also celebrate the 10 year anniversary edition of my African Queer novel, For Sizakele (!!!) which you can learn more about on nigeriandykerealness.com or myloveisaverb.com. Our art is meant to be created and shared. Don't hide your brilliance from the world, darling ones.
