Brief book note: Career Diary of an Animation Studio Owner
Friday July 18, @10:56AM
Career Diary of an Animation Studio Owner
by Joseph Daniels
A quick read, this book covers the day-to-day life of a one person animation studio. Long hours, frustration, and dealing with the business end balance out the flexible (and financially precarious) world that the author shows us. A great glimpse into what it would really be like to do this kind of work.
2.5 (out of 3) thumbs up
Next (non-technical book) on my list: Me, Myself, and Bob: A True Story About God, Dreams, and Talking Vegetables

I guess this book is definitely read for the articles?
Long hours, frustration etc (Score:1)
This is why I got out of game design and into the much more fun and socially useful career of Solving The World's Problems in Medical Genetics and Biochemistry as a Bioinformatician ...
Most of the time the stress is fairly low and the hours are fairly flexible, other than around grant renewal and data call, but those are fairly predictable.
Plus, you can decide to go skiing when you want and not worry about customers calling you.

If you're enjoying what you do, and you can make enough to live, you're rich. I haven't seen a U-Haul behind a hearse yet ...
