I think I might have figured something out about myself: in regards to the creative sector, I’m more of a craftsperson and a fine arts practitioner, a practicing visual artist.

I’m not sure of how exactly I’m going to go about choosing a career; I’m not sure what exactly I should do. I thought that after I had ‘formally left’ the writing/editing/research aspiration, that I would be sailing through life, at that point.
