Creative freelancers pursue these careers because, well, they're creative. But once you start doing creative work it can be hard to pursue your own interests and still get paid.  Kristen Dullum and Alain Champagne of Creatures of The Night Design are two designers who do a really great job of balancing their pet projects while still making a living. In this episode, they share their strategies and struggles, and talk about why sometimes you absolutely SHOULD take up bronze work in your free time.  Today's links:  https://www.instagram.com/designedbycreatures/ https://www.designedbycreatures.com https://www.easel.ly/ -- Want to support the show?
