Well, an author does expect to be paid for their efforts. We have raging discussions about that constantly here. It certainly affects writers, to compare what they expect to earn in a "real job" (lol) versus following their drive to write. The average Adobe employee probably does have more income, and at a steadier rate, than the average published author.
OTOH, I suspect Larry McMurty makes considerably more than just about anyone below the executive level at Adobe, having written books that were made into successful movies. Of course the dude is in his 70's and worked his @ss off writing for many years!
