This. There's also the fact that I wouldn't trust myself to write for a sole living. I get periodic bouts of writers block, and I don't want to depend on something I know is erratic in order to earn what I need to live. I'd much rather do something I know I can do consistently in order to earn money, and then have my writing as something I enjoy doing when I can and which I can get an immediate sense of satisfaction/feedback from.

I mean, I write the odd original story too, and I even send them off once in a while. I actually sold a story once. But those are just bonuses when something came out particularly well and managed to survive an editing process. Like hell I want to be depending on that.

Writing is a hobby, in short. It's nice that occasionally I can produce something genuinely good with it, at least as far as reviews and that one successful sale goes, but talent unfortunately does not a career make. And sometimes you don't even want it to.
