What kind of a job would be good for someone who excels at games like Ricochet Robots, Set, and Boggle?

I seem to be very adept at seeing paths, abstract sets of objects, and making words from jumbled letters. I also am a gifted musician. I teach some violin, and play in a new music ensemble, but mostly I just like to have fun playing music. I like to improvise. But I am having trouble staying afloat financially, and would like some steady work that is NOT in retail sales! Something creative that uses my brainpower! Any ideas?
