Uncreative WorkYour craft deserves your full attention.
Let AI handle the rest
Uncreative Work is for writers, musicians, and filmmakers who are tired of spending more time on websites, spreadsheets, and logistics than on the work that actually matters.
The creative tax
Every creative person knows the feeling. You sit down to write, record, or shoot, and instead you spend the next two hours updating your website, formatting a spreadsheet, chasing invoices, or trying to figure out how to set up an email list. By the time the business stuff is done, the creative energy is gone.
The technical and administrative work that surrounds creative work is endless. And for most of us, it's the thing standing between where we are and what we actually want to be doing.
What if you had a way to hand off the parts of your work that drain your creativity instead of feeding it?
Not the writing. Not the music. Not the story. Those are yours.
But the website builds, the file management, the SEO research, the formatting, the distribution setup, the project tracking? That's uncreative work. And AI is getting remarkably good at handling it.

Who's writing this
This site documents one builder's journey of using AI to clear away the uncreative work that surrounds creative projects.
I spent 23 years building automation systems at one of the largest banks in the country. When that chapter ended, I started building for myself: a website engine, a writing assistant, and the workflows that let me focus on the things I actually care about. Now I write about what I'm learning along the way.
Here you'll find build logs from real projects, honest reviews of AI tools, and practical guides for creative people who want to spend less time on technology and more time on their craft.
