I found that this article was supportive of recreational mathematicians. See the closing passage.

>Find a question that is meaningful to you, find other humans who are interested in it, and talk about it. Be confused, be stuck, be inspired. Find a messy proof, then find a better one. Get tired, get hungry, get into a flow state. Argue, laugh, give up, drink some coffee, and attack it again.
