I’m not very familiar with the details of writing fiction professionally, but it seems like the wrong thing to do if you’re looking to make money—I’m remembering hearing that a large proportion of authors aren’t very successful, financially. (The fact that I don’t remember where I heard this and so can’t gauge its credibility very well means that it should be discounted significantly.)
Can anyone who is more knowledgeable about the professional writing business comment on this?
