I came across an article recently that was quite discouraging for online writers. In a nutshell, they said it's impossible for most people to build an online writing business, and that most of these writing gurus are selling you pipe dreams. Is it strange, though, that I refuse to believe them? Is it strange that I'd rather be an idealist and optimist, believe that it's possible, and work hard to achieve it, instead of being a realist? I just figure, believing in it and working for it, is better than doing nothing at all because you believe it's not even possible.
