It's all I do as a 'job' but by no means pays any kind of salary (I'm only just starting to take a profit and am a few years in). I would love to have a paying job, and am utterly fed up of living from commission to commission, but unfortunately my husband's mental health issues and small children mean I can't commit to anything with set hours. I think I'll just have to become either brilliant or wildly famous! I'm lucky I absolutely love what I do, but I wish I could put more into it, both timewise and financially.
