So this guy I knew wayyyyy back in college recently resurfaced. He was quite a talented musician, but last I knew he was giving that up to pursue another (I think less adventurous) path. I was pleased to hear from him, and, best of all, to discover that he’s writing and releasing his music again. He is a one-man operation, laying down track after track, until what is in his head makes it out into the world for the rest of us. Go listen, and, if you like what you hear, by God, buy it!!

Greetings!
Would that me the musician friend from your book who at one point decided to be a lawyer?… just curious.
Also, I wanted to let you know that I picked up a copy of your book at the local library and am really enjoying it.
I’m an artist and writer myself.

Thanks for the kind words! I know more than a few folks who’ve chosen traditional careers rather than their music.
In fact, there are so many creative people out there who wish they were doing their music, art, writing — whatever! — but they get stuck doing something else instead. And there are so many practical reasons for that — like raising kids, accessing company-provided health insurance, paying off burdensome debt, and on and on. Finding a satisfying balance can be very, very hard.
