Girlish vanity???

Gee, I always assumed you were a guy!

I am, but as soon as I start thinking of myself as "creative" in any way I suddenly become prone to hysterical fits of drama-queen style self-recrimination and morose navel-staring. As a result I sometimes I need copious and utterly unjustified lavishings of praise and reassurance, hence this thread=-)
