If I had my way I would be working full time making books for a living, while traveling the world and experiencing cultures and people.<br /><br />More simply, I'm happiest when I create. Working a full time day job in which I can't do this never fulfills me enough.Shehttp://shechronicles.posterous.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6123927064981250646.post-42620918008995988942009-09-12T07:56:26.691-07:002009-09-12T07:56:26.691-07:00Thanks for this--I just put this on hold at my lib...Thanks for this--I just put this on hold at my library. The eternal day-job quandary still haunts me. On the one hand, I agree that as soon as you start getting paid to create, you sacrifice a certain amount of innocence necessary for the creative process. On the other hand, having a day job, even a somewhat creative one, slices the day up into blocks, and sometimes when the "time to write music" block comes up, I'm too drained from working to really show up. I've solved the dilemma temporarily by getting laid off, but that's not forever!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11414314552479220304noreply@blogger.com
