"I can’t do anything else, partly because I don’t want to. Writing’s what I do, and it’s been pretty good to me so far. Nobody said it’d be easy, or that the conditions or challenges would remain the same. That’s the creative life. If you have a career that lasts longer than a decade then the playing field is bound to change and shift during your span as the world spins and progress happens, for better or worse. Both streaming and AI are merely the next challenges to either overcome or work through."
