Mark Twain said, "Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life."

Categorically untrue.

It's not enough to simply enjoy your job. It needs to be a part of your identity, a part of who you are, and who you've always been.

In some ways, the job has to be YOU.

I have been telling stories my entire life. In my professional career, I have written on-spec, created newsletters, created content, taken photos, worked on podcasts, written copy, designed websites, and quite a bit more.

Before a paycheck was involved, I wrote fan fiction during class (shout out to the AP World History squad). Before that,  I wrote short stories, comics, painting, (more) fan fiction, songwriting, and I played pretend. I have always had stories to tell.

I AM a storyteller.
