basic lore
lampGuitar is a first generation immigrant, brought over to the US at toddler age and was raised with the belief that he could achieve and be anything he wanted with enough work and a sprinkle of luck. Reality however is a tad bit more complicated. Bills need to be paid and if lampGuitar is to be a responsible human, compromises were made.
this is a personal blog so imma have my personal goal on here without shame. i want to be able to teach and mentor people on how to make a living as a creative. and not in any scummy ways like dropshipping or hostile micro-transaction type games, but earning money through their artistic/creative expression.
to be clear, i have little idea on how to do so. So i’m not going to be pretend i already know how. so I’m walking the walk first. at the very least if I achieve nothing, my experience can serve as a warning of what NOT to do.
