Just don't give up trying to do what you really want to do. Where there is love and inspiration, I don't think you can go wrong.
The way we're going about things and what we want to do, we feel it has to be a really pure essence of music. That's where you get the most out of it.
Self-publishing is fine. But in a world of self-publishing, where everything is about what you get on the back end, there's a serious disincentive from embarking on really important, vital projects.
Write what you really care about. Write what you want to say because that is the experience that always rates as genuine on the page.

The greatest success is creating whatever you want without conditions. I don't do commissions unless I really want to, because it's like having a job.
