Answer
Purple,

Thanks for writing. Unfortunately, there is no way for me to answer your question. From what you've written, it appears that you like the arts, but you haven't really said where your talent lies. Is it in writing, directing, acting, playing music, dancing, drawing, etc. And even with this information, who am I to tell you not to follow something that your heart yearns for? If you have a passion for a particular area of the arts, then pursue your passion. You'll be happier doing what you love than doing what will pay the bills. You can also pay the bills AND pursue your artistic passions, just not on a professional level.

Hope this helps. Good luck!
