Thanks for all your helpful info It's nice to hear from someone who is a writer as well I sorta work part-time right now, I work 30hours a week but I'd like to work less, but financially it's not feasible right now. I'm doing my school work as fast as possible but it's kinda on hiatus right now as well. Basically, I'm on a mental health leave from work and they're paying me disability benefits, so I'm afraid to continue with my studies while I'm off because that might not look "right." I don't want them to think I don't have anxiety and other issues because I can do well in school but can't work y'know?
I would never quit my job to write, it's just starting to look like I may be off for awhile so I figured it'd be a great time to get started. And hey, if I make some money off it great! If not, at least it'll keep my mind occupied.
I was really surprised to hear how little a harlequin type novel makes...how do you know that? Do you have any other info like that (or a website that gives an idea of how authors get paid)?
