Is it worth it to pursue the career of an author, or is that a foolish and pernicious idea?
That's pretty stupid.
Do you have a gimmick, drive, and chops? Also I always thought being an author meant you'd have some extra cash to go along with your minimum wage job.

you're not a writer man i see right through you
Go ahead. Just make sure you have an actual idea of what you want to write and are willing to put in the effort. Don't do it if you're just in love with "the literary lifestyle" and spend most of your time daydreaming about doing an interview for the Paris Review.
