100 pages away from finishing the book, I should have had it read awhile ago but I got myself sucked into a void. The demand of me picked up and so I lost time freelancing, now I'm exhausted, working on virtually no sleep and people are trying to pull that whole "if you become part of MY project you will benefit" when they don't understand that I can do more without being part of any specific group (for these particular cases).

What sucks about being an creator (whether graphic design or illustration) is that these days no one wants to really pay you, everything is wanted on the cheap. Pretty much the epitome of why some people on this site choose logo mills and contests over hiring artist directly...wanted for the cheap.

I told my friend I've been working hard and needed a break, he told me I haven't been working at all because I haven't been working for myself.

I want my time back.
