And the folks who are actually writing full-time generally only got there after years of day jobs, family support, or both.

The point of sharing this is not to demoralize anyone, but to let emerging writers know they're not failing if they can't make a living off writing alone. Almost no one can.
almost every novelist you read who's not from the airport fiction or bestseller sections is working a full on day job, including multi-award winners and absolute legends, or they have a spouse or trust that supports them. virtually across the board. just normalize in your mind that's how it works.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

Mining all my old romance art, for an B+W zine-artbook-thing.

Yet to find out exactly how much greyscale the printer can do, but it’ll be a fun restricted challenge regardless!

Wife: Man, I can't even imagine being 6 ft tall
Me: You couldn't be 6 ft because you'd get motion sick!
Wife: So THAT'S why I'm short! I've figured it out! I was made short because I'd get motion sick!!!

a lot of internalized isms come to the fore when the conversation around artists being paid and piracy comes around. blockbusters, videogames, official merchandise for overculture releases and the internet excites : an independent creator asks for $9 dollars for an epub and people recoil.

Look. I get it. Sex sells. And I have not been appealing to you with attractive people in my posts enough. Well no longer! Lust. Drool over their visage. Do as they say. Consume. Acquire.
