My field is small but getting larger
2 years ago
Rather than try to describe what it is, or what I am about, I will say that it helped that I was a pioneer. I brought new ways of doing very old stuff to the table. I went where the energy was. Where people were interested, and valued what I did, I put my energy. Where people were ready to undermine me, I would get bogged down.
There were some people who championed me, and thought I was “the best there was, anywhere” at what I do. I worked enough under those people to earn a stellar reputation.
What it got me was a degree of freedom in an unfree world.
