I'm not suggesting for one minute that fiction writing wouldn't benefit. In my case I am very lucky to have friends who can help me. If I had to pay for these services, then it would be a different matter and it probably wouldn't be done as well because of the cost incurred. I believe this to be true of most “Indie Authors”, but then that is only my opinion and by the grace of God, Harry and Saint George, we are all entitled to our opinions.
