These kind of posts always leave me with a mix of inspiration and discouragement.

It is awesome to read about someone like you (local developer, similar learning style, beginner entrepreneur) who actually builds something. There is a lot to be proud of for just Doing Something - even if you fail. But at the same time, I feel like I would fall into the same pitfalls that you mentioned.

I am not looking forward to doing anything related to setting up an LLC, doing sales calls, etc. I like my job and don't want to quit. I know other developers but end up working on my own stuff alone in most cases.

Thanks for sharing Aaron - I'll have to try to make it out to the next Devs With Side Projects meetup.
