I think you are very much right regarding the writing for payment…I have seen one thing among people closely..greed…If you do something for free for one person, he will come again and again to you untill you ask him for some kind of help, specially money…once you ask him for anything, and he will vanish like thin air…At first I also didn’t mind designing website for free for relatives or friends, but slowly and slowly I came to know that I am just getting into bad thing…:)

Can you make a living from Second Life or just additional income. I really want to Retire At 40 and I'm currently doing a few money making projects with little success. I'm looking into Second Life but can you make a living from it?

Diana, thanks so much for your comment. Those are excellent tips for writers looking to enhance their income in Second Life!

You were one of the writers I had in mind when I wrote this post. I’ve long been impressed by how you use SL’s functions to get your writing out. I also love the workshops you teach! I’ve been thinking about profiling you as an excellent example of good writers making the most of SL.

Great post, Joan! I can attest to the fact that writers can, indeed, make money in SL. Doing live readings offers a wonderful opportunity for writers to not only promote their works, but get some great feedback from readers. You can either charge an up-front fee or simply ask for monetary tips from your audience…both have worked for me in the past.

A note about setting out a shop of your own where people can pick up excerpts and purchasing info: “if you build it they will come” only works for baseball fields. Be at the shop at specified times and you’ll be amazed at who stops in!

And fill out your profile! So many great conversations have begun with people saying to me, “I was looking at your profile. Are you REALLY an erotic romance author?” LOL

Good advice for all authors, Joan!
