RE: Writing tips

in #writing7 years ago

I'm always being told to write romance and erotica because that's where the money is, that's how you make a living. The truth is I am much more passionate about intensive world-building, the kind you find in fantasy and sci-fi. Usually, others try to discourage me from it. But it's where I find I am the happiest and most comfortable. Seeing success from writers like you, simply writing what you know, gives me hope. Thank you!

Hey @danportuondo, if you are writing to make money and have the experience and skill to churn out money-making books, then yes, romance is certainly where the money is.

I'm with you on this. I write because I like writing. If I had to make a living from it in that way, it would swiftly turn into just another job and I'd become bored and disillusioned.

Do what you need to do for you :)
