On some days I drive myself crazy sitting on the knowledge that I have a huge potential, resources and all, for doing essentially whatever I want to do - and not wanting anything. Is it that my mind gives up on something the instant I think of it as security against future disappointment? It doesn't feel that way - it's more like I can't focus on

I know the feeling. The number of jobs I could excel at far exceeds the number of jobs I'm incapable of doing, but I was feeling stuck at SellerEngine and I'm feeling a little lost now that I'm not there

I suppose that's really the core of the issue... I've tried multiple times to arbitrarily choose one area of interest and pursue it, but haven't been able to stick to it.

Yeah, I know those blues. I feel like I could have been writing anything - in fact I was writing a novel when I started El Kiablo - but at some point, I realized that cartooning best fit my writing style and what interested me about writing (continual small ideas, rather than larger themes or characters). And I've been pretty serious about that ever since. It's kind of nice, in a way, to just dig into one thing and then to forget the other things you can do.
