Boy howdy, do *not* go into writing expecting to make money. 🙃

I always have multiple projects on the go for a reason: editing, translation, teaching, on top of fiction & nonfiction. Selling stories to magazines has *always* made more than any other category - but that's not saying much!

I am thankful for the time I've had to spend on creative practice. That alone makes me one of the rare, lucky few in our unjust cosmos.

May we always extend the table from whatever slender platform we have.
