I've never felt drawn to this work at all (though that doesn't mean I don't love it). My real creative desire was to be a novelist and screenwriter, but I could never motivate myself enough to write, so to distract myself from that I started working with the internets. What I do is something that's (somewhat surprisingly) come naturally to me. I ended up here because it pays regularly, and is easier to do. Now, I try and write as a distraction from work.
