A character in a favorite book of mine said “I’m an artist with the soul of an accountant.” This resonated with me in part because it was inverse to the typical phrasing you’d hear among struggling artists, and in part because it summed me up so well. The things I do in life are creative endeavors, be it design, music, writing, or putting out zines and putting on festivals. The flip side of that is having a fairly left-brained approach to those endeavors. I say all this because I believe in doing work that fits your life, and my life is one of an artist, with the soul of an accountant.
