Check out my post on writing for the internet http://www.thecraftywriter.com/2007/10/19/non-fiction-writing-for-the-internet/ - note particularly the section on 'the bottom line'. Yes, there is some money, but whether it's worth giving up your day job for it is an individual decision. And don't put all your eggs in one basket! I earn some money from advertising and some money from selling books online. But I also write for the 'dead tree' press, do some copywriting, teach, tutor, critique etc etc. All told I make a living, but whether it is a good one or not is subjective. Why do I write? Because I love it. Good luck with your writing! Hi Giri,
