Yeah- if you're JK Rowling, Stephen King, or Stephanie Meyer. And writing books can take a long time- you can't make your sole career to be a novelist if you only release one book every few years. Unless you're any of the three authors I mentioned above. It's rare to have excessively popular books that are so popular you don't need a full time job.
Is it normal to feel like I've failed at life (at 19)?
