Very few writers can actually live from their writing. Most write as a hobby and/or have another source of income. The differences in earnings are huge. At the one extreme are authors who earn almost nothing from their writing and perhaps even lose (for example, if the cost of research is taken into account); at the other extreme are authors like J. K. Rowling who have earned a lot by writing.
