Being a beginner is exploration! It is something new. Writing was new. Cosplay was new. make up was and remains new. Sewing is still new. Digital art will probably keep me occupied for a decade!
Yes, doing something well matters. When i don't I find I am not happy with the end result. This happens with me regarding phtographs and art. I find I do not like what I've done earlier. This is probably the same with fic writers.
Does it get wrapped up in who I hoped I might be. I suppose. But I beleive a made a good decision in being practical. Most folks who do what we do as a hobby for a living often have day jobs. They cannot make a living wage at it. (e.g. composing music, writing fic, photography, sewing, acting, art, crafts...) All of this, and what we do is simply another form of a labor of love. What is ultimately important is we find joy in what we do, because if we don't it is death by 10000 mosquitos.
I havent tried that interface. They require some setting up. Not sure what level of memory hog they are.
