It almost makes you want to give up. 

But! I am determined! None of it is cutesy, it's not fan art (I used to when I was younger draw fan art but I'd rather do my own thing as I got older)

It's a little tricky though. Some sites seem and appear very prestige, like you have had to come from a stupidly expensive art institute (I almost went to one. Stupid story)

Anywise...  I figure I'll persevere in this endeavor. I love art in all it's myriad forms and if I can some how make a living off what I love to do, why not persue?  Right?

Some one told me once that you should only choose a career that is beneficial when the world ends.  While I didn't disagree, why not do both?  End of the world bards and therapists can exist even if they no longer make no way from it, and if they were only in careers, like psychology for the money and not to genuinely help people (not many, I know) then maybe they would have no purpose at the "end of the world" and that career journey truly was a waste to everyone who could've benefit.  

Either way, when this person told me this, I thought about it for enough of a time. I decided with a stomped foot, if everyone else gets to do things they enjoy and make money off of it, why can't I?  The point is, screw them. And screw the person who parroted it to me.

I'm going to do whatever the hell I want.  Including going continuing through the somewhat daunting task of finding "fair" sites to sell...
