   Oh, tough one! Think I’d rather gain acclaim at the end of my career, not sure why, just seems a bit better than a one hit wonder 🙂

   I agree. I always wonder what happens to artists after they disappear from the spotlight…like do they have their own small following, did the fame get too much (even after such a short time) so they’re happily doing things their own way. As long as you do what makes you happy I don’t suppose it makes a difference 🙂 Thanks for the comment. Mel

   Good question. I think I’d rather gain acclaim at the end of my career. At least if you aren’t really known at the time of your working, you will be doing it out of passion and end up with a lifetime worth of work to be discovered and appreciated later, rather than being known for one thing. I also imagine it would be quite difficult to readjust if you’ve had a taste of recognition and then lose it.

   Wise words, and I agree – it must be extremely difficult. Thanks for contributing 🙂 Mel
