[quote=Anonymous]I'm in my late 40s and have two friends who loved writing but were realistic enough to know they couldn't make a living at it. One did an MFA at night. Makes a lot of money in finance. The other wrote several (self published) books in the evenings and weekends while working corporate jobs. Both seem satisfied with making comfortable incomes and being able to engage in creative pursuits. Neither one has kids though--I don't see how anyone could do what they're doing on top of raising a family.[/quote]
