When pursuing your dream, focus on doing what you love not what brings in money. Many people who really want to be novelists take jobs as journalists and ad writers. That’s fine if they enjoy that kind of work but often it simply means deferring their dream. During today’s writing session, do not worry if your novel will sell or if it has the keywords that marketing gurus want so it can be easily found on the web. Simply write and know that if you do what you love, the money will follow.
