Stop Starving, Start Writing: 8 Real Ways to Actually Earn from Your Words
Let’s be brutally honest for a second. It guts me. Absolutely guts me. Seeing someone pour their soul onto the page, craft sentences that shimmer, tell stories that resonate, only to watch them wrestle with bills, stress over rent, or worse – give up altogether because "writing doesn’t pay." That phrase shouldn’t exist. It shouldn’t be a badge of honour or a resigned sigh. It should be a relic. I hate seeing writers not making money. It feels like watching a master painter use their finest brush to scrub floors for pennies. Your words have value. Serious value. And it’s high time that value translated into actual dollars in your bank account.

Cute as a Button, Balls of Brass
“Cute as a button,” my mother would agree, except on this day. I was four years old. At that age, I didn’t have a plan, but lots of determination. I just wanted to watch my father play tennis. I knew the way because I had walked there with my mother many times.
