What advice do you have for dealing with the frustration when inevitable blocks in the creative process occur? And another question, not an easy one... what would you say is the best way to deal with failed ideas?

Thanks! The hardest bit is to overcome the emotional attachment to a doomed idea...

I'm not sure I agree with the premise. The written word is far from dead; it is still literally everywhere. The use of illustration to aid communication of complex ideas means that a wider audience is reached, and more people overall get exposure to an idea.

I would say two things: first of all look at the ways in which your ideas could be communicated better to mainstream society. How could the language be different to reach your desired conclusion? Second of all, expand your toolkit by adding illustration of the kind that could further your ideas
