yes… i think so… i think that many artists and writers compete with each other, whether it’s a conscious effort or not. i think some competition is healthy… i think it drives artists and writers to keep going (in addition to their own creative motivation, etc.) i think for the most part you’ll see writers “competing” with each other for fun… kind of to add a new diminsion to their relationship not only with their contemporaries, but with their audience as well. just like when rappers find another rapper to have a “beef” with… gives them a lot of fuel.

i am curious though if you could expand on what you meant by “compete” in this instance since you seem to have a personal experience of this happening to you…

interesting question, andeh!
