I don’t know. Maybe not if I was writing full-time, but holding down a day job and running a family? Who knows. This year will show another set of figures. Maybe I’ll have a better idea in June. Ask me then.Sales?In 7 months: 38, with over half occurring in the last two months (November and December 2012). Is it worth it?YES!
