Second prompt for this new season of /words:

Is writing your livelihood, or part of it?

If you want to get more specific:

-What kind of writing do you do?
-How do you think about the value of writing + editing on Farcaster?
-How can crypto fund high-quality writing sustainably? 

Please respond with either a comment below or via quote cast here in the channel, whichever you prefer. ✍️

writing is not my direct livelihood, but it sits upstream of everything i do. 

writing is a way to express myself, but also process, think, reflect and nurture ideas. 

publishing my work continuously expand my opportunity surface area, leading to the business opportunities that currently makes up "livelihood". 

i once worked with an exec coach that challenged me: what would it look like building your company and career from a position of pure creative expression. 

similarly to how young kids paint to express themselves, not to achieve any specific outcome or end state. 

i wasn't ready to do that then, but it's what i'm surrendering to now.

Writing is a great way of thinking through and developing ideas, and it's even better when it attracts others who are well aligned.
