Thank you for this interview! Stephanie Law has been one of my favorite artists for a few years now and I was ecstatic to see this interview pop up in my email. I really enjoyed listening to her stories, her life and interests parallel mine so much that she is a huge inspiration for me.
Also loved the conversation about conventions. I am also an introvert and have social anxiety & phobias, but I have learned that conventions are where I thrive and I really enjoy doing them. 🙂
Thank you Cory and Stephanie!
