@ZubyMusic My current main source of income are my book royalties, which I get paid twice a year. A lump sum of royalties reaches my account in December, and by January, I lose the entire sum (plus more) to taxes. It does make everything feel kinda pointless π« π«
@ZubyMusic One time I received an out of the blue offer to write material for a film marketing campaign with a major studio, which I was absolutely sure was a scam.
Turned out to be legit π
@ZubyMusic I was 17 when I first started submitting novels to literary agents.
I was 34 when I finally landed a publishing deal.
Perseverance pays off πͺ
@angexistence @ZubyMusic Respectfully, I find this attitude strange. I have friends/family members working min wage jobs as it gives them more time at home with their kids, or because they're a few years off retirement and see no need to climb a corporate ladder. Society needs people to work those jobs.
Happy World Book Day πβ¨π« π
