Thanks for sharing this Jess, such a great perspective and way of looking at creative labels! I can absolutely comfortably claim all the actions - I am doing xyz- so much more comfortable than I am a writer etc. Great read 💛💛

You hit the nail on the head in how you differentiated the "ing" activity from the "er" person. Also, the "er" person considers the label as part of their identity. I can paint, but there is no way I'd consider myself a painter.
