Leftists Purging History or Al Queda in America

Oh, sure. If you're only going to do creative writing, you've backed yourself into a corner. You will have to get a day job, get famous or mass produce ebooks at a rate that makes it statistically impossible not to sell any at all.
I do all kinds of writing. I've done research copy, which is really interesting. I write blog posts for people on any number of topics and only those that interest me personally. I write travel copy on places I've visited. I write retail copy, which pays the best and is the most consistent flow of income. I've written and published three horror novels and a children's book. I'm currently writing two short story collections and a historical fiction novel set in Revolutionary Boston. A lot of writers make writing about writing their bread and butter. I think it's a cop-out if the only thing you're selling is what you sell to other writers. How are you telling people how to be a successful writer if your only audience is other writers? Still, there's money to be had in that as well. There are only a handful of people making real money in poetry. If you write poetry, good fucking luck.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Or you could try the James Patterson method, hire young writers to do the writing and stick your name on the spine to ensure they sell.
