Ty and I were just talking about this.
I'm pretty sure that the fundamental reason I am driven to write music and write is so that when I'm dead, there's a massive body of work for my kids to sift through to really help them understand who I am.
That's about it. It's really that simple. I don't care if I ever make money, or make fans, or play shows or am ever appreciated (yes, those things are wonderful, I am not a robot).
The point is, I won't ever be discouraged from creating things because the primary number one goal is to leave behind a body of work.
That way, my great-great-great grandson "Zorcon 5" can understand a little better where he came from.
