The economy ain't got no strings on me

Well, that depends. It's hard to make a living as a writer, even if you're good at it.

Oh I know my dad was a writer too. Made money on his technical books but never on his fiction.

I never even as a kid planned on making money on it. If I am one of the few that does become that successful hey great but I knew that to be a writer I would need two things.

One. A Job to pay the bills

Two. Ideas.

See I have both of those. I'm great with ideas, but terrible on follow through. I finally did complete a book earlier this year (go me!) but I have no less than three unfinished projects on my hard drive right now.

Me too but I guess I was trying to say that for me writing is my career but I work a job so I don't have to be results oriented.

To only have three <looks wistful> sigh. >.>

I have an alarming amount of writing that's never seen the light of day. I'm not even going to hazard a guess at how many books worth. I may begin to weep.
