About This Quote

Writing is an art, a profession, a craft. Writing is also a business. It has been said that “all professions are business, but some are better than others,” and writing is one of those professions. If you have the talent to write well, you can make money from it.

If you have the talent to blog well, you can make money from it. If you have the talent to design websites well, you can make money from it. If you have the talent to edit well, you can make money from it.

If you have the talent to do voice overs well, you can make money from it. This quote makes sense because very few people think of themselves as ridiculous for earning no money at their chosen profession; but writers do because we know how much investment goes into producing a book or website worth reading.
