Finding Your Freelance Passion Project

I’ve been freelancing for a few years now, and lately, I’ve been wondering what keeps other people motivated beyond just the paycheck. For me, it’s writing custom background music for indie games I’d probably do it even if the pay was minimal. It’s that satisfying blend of creativity and technical skill, kind of like how I approach my craft beer hobby: always tweaking and refining. What’s your equivalent? That one niche skill or project you’re genuinely passionate about? I’d love to hear what drives you in your freelance work.
