Lovely read, my favorite bit was this: “I am part of a community of people who work just like anyone else to survive, but choose to work more to achieve something they have been consistently told is impossible.”
What would you say your main income stream/source is? I’m curious for you to expand or share an article where you might have already?
One piece of feedback that I hope is helpful. I find it hard to read the monotype letters in the email due to the line spacing—yet in substack it looks wonderful. Have you considered sending the email with original / substack font—and then changing it after the email has gone out so you keep monospace on your posts?
Just an idea :) I’ve been enjoying your posts, and I look forward to the next!
Thank you for this message. I'm sorry I missed it at the time. I must seem very rude. Not sure about the monotype thing. I'll look into it. As far as income streams go, I'm not sure which is more lucrative. Work from writers on substack is steady but the rates are low. The rates for magazines are reasonable but rare. I think I want to work on book cover design more. It seems like a good balance. And the alternative publishing scene seems pretty vibrant these days. Cheers
Yessss, what an uplifting read, thank you! 💖 I was just today thinking, that hell yeah, I should just really focus on painting stuff and writing books. Just be creative, and hopefully make an actual living from it (now it's not too lucrative yet, graphic design pays more, but it will be all soon mostly AI, so oh well)
