I always wanted to make a living as an artist. However, society pushed me into a "more acceptable" career where I could "make money."

So, I became a computer programmer instead.

I also became miserable.

Seventeen years later, I gravitated back to the arts—and found a way to make a full-time living at it.

This podcast is the story of how that happened and (a) why you should never close the curtains on your artistic dreams and (b) why you should always encourage someone who is truly passionate about the arts to continue to create, and to help them find success in that career.
