CREATIVE DISCLOSURE

By submitting my work, I acknowledge that each time I create and share a piece of my art or a piece of my mind, I may become stronger.  But I also might give people who (for whatever reason) tools to use against me.  For any artist or writer, there are risks which come with creating. When I share art, writing or perspectives or release them into the world, my own words cease to be just mine. That means they can be used against me. If I write regularly, I acknowledge I’m probably going to end up sharing multiple perspectives on the same issues as I grow.  I’m going to end up writing and publishing things that may or may not be factual or perceived as factual.  This is a creative platform, using writing as a means to express but I may also participate in writing plans for the future.  I acknowledge I should avoid creating any art or writings which include anything that could be used against me or be perceived as related to court-cases or crimes I may be accused of committing or have committed.  I should avoid creating or publishing anything that portrays anything graphic, obscene, abusive or hateful.  These things include negative portrayals including on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, sexual orientation, gender, gender identity, religious affiliation, age, or disability; or intended to defame or discriminate against anyone or any entity, including encouraging illegal activity.  I acknowledge I have the right to remain unpublished. When I share my art and writing here or out in the world, I acknowledge I will  stay mindful of these things.
