I was just wondering, can you have a primary/secondary career in addition to writing? I don't mean just a simple job at the local market or food chain, but a real career line?
I'm about to start college next year (finally) and was thinking of becoming a commercial pilot (if you remember me from earlier, yeah the contruction gig didn't exactly work out). I plan to write in sci-fi/fantasy, and would prefer not to have to bother with a pen name. Given the benefits and pay of flying, I think I'd really love to fly. However, I also really like to write, but the pay is good, and I will sacrifice it if I have to. But I want to know, do I have to sacrifice one for the other, or can I be both?
