It seems difficult to align what you want to do for a living with what you can practically. I've realised what I've always wanted to do is write computer games, that's in fact the reason I got into software development in the first place. The rise of digital distribution makes it more achievable to start very small as a sideline with relatively little overhead or risk. I love it when a plan comes together.
