Have you suffered from wanting fame but not having it ?

As an artist, I am suffering from it. It's as if I'm carrying a message that I'm not managing to deliver.
As if the deliverance isn't done properly and as if the impact isn't there

No. I'd absolutely hate random people recognizing me on the street, even locally. Only if I was famous by a pseudonym and nobody would know my face.

@CrazyMusicLover that's also realistic. Another side of the reality

@CrazyMusicLover I've been recognized a couple of times, once in the street in Brighton and another time in a pub in Warwick by men from Fabguys.com. It was cool. Doesn't really count as fame though.

@SW-User The best of both worlds. You could feel accomplishment and earn a lot of money but also protect your privacy to the fullest.

@ninalanyon There are moments that are even useful. 😆 Like when I was ordering new eyeglasses and told the optician that maybe I wouldn't be able to pick them up and whether it's okay if my father comes and asked him for an official order paper or to note my name. And he was like: "oh, it's okay, I remember your father." I was surprised and told him he must have had good memory for faces and he just told: "oh, no, no, I know him from the media." 🙈
