I wanted to become a writer but had no idea how to get there.
I wanted to stop wasting time writing things no one read (and that made no money).
I wanted to feel like I was living my purpose.
If any of this sounds likes you, well then, you’re in good company. My name is David, and I’m a writer. For that last sentence to be true, I had to become a person of action. That meant experimenting as I went (instead of perfecting before I even tried), building a deep self-confidence in what I was capable of, and not dwelling on the mistakes I made along the way.
Because I kept going, here are a few of the good things that happened as a result.
- Became a full-time writer in 2019.
- Self-published 12+ books that have sold 250,000+ copies.
- Paid off $60,000 in student loans through writing.
- Was the first person in my family to graduate from college (BA in Classical and Medieval Studies, MA in Religion, MEd in Instructional Design).
- Wrote approximately 2,000,000 words professionally for blogs, websites, and clients.
This blog is the guide I wish I had available when I was just getting started. An honest, transparent, in-depth resource that provides the most up-to-date information available on how to make money as a writer in today’s digital economy.
My promise to you, as a subscriber, is:
- I will demystify the writing career landscape.
- I will only recommend products, services, and tools I personally use (and would recommend to my own grandmother).
- I will reveal my finances and processes so that you can see what’s possible and realistic.
