I have made a process for doing pen drawings involving bitmap to SVG conversion. It's called Robot Draws You! and it's been in perpetual limbo for the past few years as my career has struggled and cratered.

I just don't have the time to be able to focus on a creative endeavour when I feel like my world is crumbling around me.

I've written multiple versions of the bitmap to SVG converter, I have an XY robot gantry set up and I have a bunch of plans and schematics drawn up to diagram how it all works.

Getting the focused time to be fully "plugged in" to the project is impossible when every day I'm freaked out about how I will pay the bills, will I ever get a job, will I lose everything tomorrow.

Additionally I feel intense shame for having worked on this thing for "years" and still not having any significant progress to report or show. It's a huge embarrassment, but one day I hope it can be something I am proud of.
