" Personally, I started writing stories and poems in the same period. I accept as a poem and a story from two different magazines the same day. Truly a day to mark in red on the calendar. One of the most beautiful things that have happened to me. They paid me a dollar for poetry, and the story they promised me some free copies of the magazine. One way to get rich, as we see. "(Raymond Carver)
How many writers are rich in the world? How many people can really, without becoming a millionaire, living writing? Yes, there are few.
Some people are already half-known or famous in other ways, and biographies published in his name, collections of anecdotes and jokes, libroni trite and popular, with socio-political considerations (The whole work of a ghostwriter is not always well paid). But is this really the ambition that animates your nights at the computer?
Some people write living there already, why does the reporter or columnist, and you see the so-called commission instant book (read: thick book put together in a week by an editor more sleepless sewing items and older on a burning topical issue). But it is a privilege that belongs to those who are really able to deal with matters of this kind, and while visibility is sufficient to request his opinion on the matter.
Some gill the way of manuals effect over the "Seven pounds in seven days" or "Surviving to my fellow harpies." No objection if these readings can bring relief and support to those who may feel the need. But even this has really to do with what we imagine to be the player-type of this blog: a rookie novelist who took a moment of despair, deep down hopes that the bottom of this post is hidden the secret of success. This success earned and deserved.
The recipe for writing a bestseller, of course, is not there. But the good news is that, after subtracting mentioned celebrities, opinion leaders and mental coach, a chance to see their selected novel, published by a publishing house and sell a lot of everything Respect is so rare, but it can really happen to anyone: If you wrote a novel that is really good, sooner or later emerge. Like people, pass from hand to hand, will be loved, and got paid. And you, we believe, if you will be catapulted into the late evening with his face covered in greasepaint to wonder what the hell happened, you can tell deeply proud of your success, you say you've got what you wanted.
Good luck!
