Good stuff. But the real big $$ is in ghostwriting nonfiction books. I've been doing that for 16 years, and it's a terrific way to be a professional writer.

Thanks for writing this! A lot of it I’ve heard in one form or another but I still doubt myself so it’s always good to see it written down again. As a non-MFA person I appreciated your take on that. Reiterating the reasons why you might or might not want to pursue that route was helpful.

This was wonderful, thank you! I have a question: is it possible to publish under a pseudonym or pen name? I was curious if this is something you can do from the beginning or if the self-promotion required makes it impractical.
