@danalcantara I noticed that when I started "writing for work" I wrote for fun a lot less...but it also coincided with having kids so I don't know how much I can attribute one in isolation. Interesting YouTube share as well. I love the idea of more people doing YT things like that as a hobby rather than as an entrepreneur. I remember this article from Ben Brooks a while back about the guru trap where you start out as an expert because you're doing the thing, but then you go full time and get removed from the actual thing that made you big in the first place.
@ChrisJWilson the arrival of kids definitely makes finding time to write for the sake of writing a tricky proposition. I stopped watching Ali Abdaal (and Matt Ragland, to a degree) because he stopped being a semi-normal creator with a job and went all business guru. I check in sometimes because he’s still interesting but he’s largely unrelatable now
@danalcantara @ChrisJWilson the arrival of kids makes finding time to do anythingnot directly related to kids a tricky proposition.
