In this episode, I discuss the financial realities of a writing career in the digital age. I explain that with self-publishing and online platforms, writers have more opportunities to make money. I identify three major ways to make money as a writer: through writing itself, through teaching or talking about writing, and through related tasks like editing or owning a literary magazine. I also emphasize the importance of developing business and marketing skills to complement writing. I encourage listeners to research potential income streams related to their writing skills.
