I put this image together to showcase some of my designs over the years. I did most of the line art in Illustrator, which I find interesting and fun to do. I’ve been contemplating on what I want to do with my life, again. I love writing. I enjoy technical writing. I love copywriting and graphic design.
I wanted to be a novelist. Do I still want that? Do I still want to work hard at something that feels like digging a hole only to have to fill it back up and dig it again. The thrill of writing is amazing. Finishing a project is amazing. I’ve even won some awards for my writing. But trying to sell a book, even though I already have sold two, seems daunting. Trying to land an agent seem insurmountable.
Do I want to put that much effort into all of the non-writing parts of the job? That’s what I have to figure out. I would love to get a job creating things that are then printed or posted and then used for good in a timely fashion.
Anyone hiring for that?
