creating things takes out money from our pockets for the first, we say, 18 months

Let's just say it took longer than that before I had anything I was willing to even consider trying to sell. I first started writing fiction in 1996. I didn't finish my first novel until 2009.

Well, I'm kind of young (in my thirties) and has been interesting how relative the time has been in every decade. I have 25 years programming, 10 years of independent life, and about 6 working on creative stuff. Our current videogame studio is 2 years old and we are still suffering on making revenue and pay all the expenses. And now I don't have that much time for my forgotten hobbies.

Sometimes I think I'm being slow reaching my goals/dreams, and then I see comments like yours or from friends, and I think is not that bad, I should be more patient.

Thanks for sharing @starbreaker
