So I've decided to give up on writing, because I'm not getting anywhere. People keep saying "don't quit" but quitting can be a good thing. For example, I quit an abusive marriage--smartest thing I ever did. Marilyn Manson started out trying to be a writer but quit and because a rock star. Anyway, to replace writing I'm doing art to sell on Etsy, Instagram, and Ebay. Just to get in the swing of things, yesterday I listed two paintings on Etsy--shop called PureLion, and I began listing books (not my own, written by others) on Ebay. Bingo, within 24 hours I had a sale. This tells me I'm heading in the right directly.
