Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you didn’t have to work? You could spend all day writing or painting. And you’d have time to do the marketing stuff so that you could actually sell your art.
You wouldn’t have to cram your creative work into tiny time slots that have to fit around everything else. You could actually have the weekend off, relax and do something nice with your family.
Maybe you would finally have a breakthrough in terms of your talent and/or where people can find you.
I’m thinking about this a lot at the moment
This is a conundrum that I am going around at the moment. I’m going to publish my novel next year. Even though the manuscript is now finished there is a lot of work to do in terms of actually creating the book and then setting up the online marketing infrastructure. I also need to write some related articles and get myself as a guest on some blogs and podcasts. And of course, continue writing a sequel and Gentle Creative blogs.
It takes time. It takes energy. My day job, though part-time, has got busier recently and I have elderly parents whom I support. My head constantly feels full of ‘stuff’ and there isn’t much space for mental clarity.
