About the Book
In a culture so concerned with what we're doing from nine to five, doing what we love is often a treasured ideal...a topic we throw around in conversation...a fantasy pushed aside for another path...the all-American dream job. However, combining elements of our work and leisure isn't always the dream it's made out to be.
In Playcheck: Navigating Work & Leisure in the Modern Hobby-Job, Claire Cavanaugh analyzes the scholarly perspectives behind work and leisure and delves into behind-the-scenes experiences of individuals who have successfully pursued their hobby as a job.
From yoga teaching, to Etsy, to professional gaming, Cavanaugh explores a question we don't often consider in pursuit of doing what we love...what happens when our work becomes play, and our play becomes work?
