Granted, I ask it all the time, but that&#8217;s because I’m genuinely interested in what other people do for a living.  But when someone else asks me that same question, I have to fight the urge to change the subject immediately in order to [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s never good. So I contacted my tech guy, Shawn Smith, who&#8217;s been saving my digital ass since 2003 [...]]]></description>

Personally, I hardly ever want to be marketing.  I&#8217;d rather be creating something awesome than trying to convince people how awesome it is. But if I never marketed, I&#8217;d just be making awesome stuff in a room all by myself, [...]]]></description>
