Fack.<br /><br />1) Sacrifice is part of anything worthwhile.<br /><br />2) Relationships. If self-publishing is a major part of who you are, then someone compatible will just have to get that. Or get kicked to the corner.<br /><br />3) Dealing with brands. I'll get there when I get there.<br /><br />4) There are ways to sell out in a larger fashion and for more money. Take writing advertising for example. Yes it can be rewarding, but it's the ultimate shilling! Making up stuff to directly broadcast for the brand. It is the exception when your "pure" creativity gets produced andd published just like you had t in your head.<br /><br />5) Hobby vs. work. If you didn't notice, I don't care what people think.

But I think it has certainly had an effect on his unique blogging identity that he had before making the move, as I said in the post. That's all I was saying.<br /><br />.Rickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11997071705150751465noreply@blogger.com
