I write to pay the bills. It's not romantic, it's just crap that people want enough to pay for. I also write fiction and that's starting to sell.
These authors sound like they're missing the point. It's not about what you've already written, it's about what you're writing and publishing now. Thompson should have accepted that deal from Faber & Faber, because if he really is that good he'd make up the decreased advance with royalties on the back end.
People haven't stopped paying money for books. Honest. People bought some of mine today (and yesterday...).
