Aw. You're so good to me! It's just... you know, 50 Shades made that woman over 10 million and counting. And it's terrible, in 50 ways. But of course, it was based off a hugely popular heterosexual couple, and that sells much better than gay romance/sex. I don't want 10 million. I don't even DREAM of 10 million. But I do dream of making as much per year at my writing as say, maybe a high school teacher. And before you put the original novel out there, those dreams are possibilities, but once you do, you find out for sure. And that's terrifying.
