If you haven't made money from writing before, don't count on being able to do it this time. Making money at writing is super bonus extra hard.

- jamesbritt 17y ago"Making money at writing is super bonus extra hard." On the whole, perhaps, but if you have a compelling story that appeals to a specific market, you're way ahead of the game. It helps if you can write, but people pay for shitty writing if the content is otherwise not readily available.

And his earlier freelance writing is different from starting his own project (like being a freelance programmer vs. having your own company). And it really is unimportant whether he succeeds with this project. It will teach him certainly many interesting things that give him more background -- for whatever he will do later.
