I like how you mention that writing “Top 10 lists” is a sacrifice, for those of us who take writing craft seriously. I often think, damn, I should just write listicles, but like you, I would not be happy and fulfilled with that. There is a balance between writing what catches people’s attention and writing what you want, but I’ve also come to terms with the fact that I’m writing for myself because that’s what makes me happiest and if I have to work a 9–5 for the rest of my life because of it, well then, so be it, at least I’ll have a body of creative work that I’m proud of.
