What do y'all do?

My wife is a writer and I enjoy creating music.

Is there something, in particular, that you like to use (software, hardware, tools, utilities, etc.)?

My wife writes using whatever, she's been collecting fountain pens more recently and I'm thinking of getting her a typewriter.

I like to use VCV Rack for music, probably the most engaging way I've created music for myself.

GDQ, MSF, and PCF??? Wow! Those are just the organizations that I recognize off the top of my head and I can already tell that you do great work. Very respectable, thank you.

I'll look into making my next charitable contribution to the Malala Fund in honor of you because this is the first time I've heard of this organization.

Just to be clear, and to make sure I'm not taking more credit than is deserved, we donate the art to GDQ to benefit the various charities they work with (like MSF, PCF, and MF). We're very much hobbyists but love that our projects can do good in the world.

Oh so like Rotary and United Way, the products/proceeds are aggregated by one organization and distributed to other charities?

That still counts in my book, you do work that benefits these charities and that's what matters to me.

Precisely. And thanks, it does feel really rewarding
