"I don't want to take up literature in a money-making spirit, or be very anxious about making large profits, but selling it at a loss is another thing altogether, and an amusement I cannot well afford."
Yes, we write because we love the craft of putting words together to tell stories. However, if one must pay the mortgage and the electric bill and other assorted bills, one must make a living wage from the writing.
Takeaway Truth
I wish all those people who pirate books and post them free on servers in other countries would realize this simple truth.
