On Saturday, Gordon, Kid 2, and I snuck into the Armadillocon as regular attendees to see Jessie Mihalik, who was one of the panelists on Impostor Syndrome Panel. Jessie wrote an interesting article about it. She’s right that imposter syndrome doesn’t go away with success. I’ve talked before about the golden carrot. A rider sits
