The real question is what's going to happen to the work of good writers, good photographers & good artists when the answer to the question "Can I make a living doing this?" becomes universally NO.

The 'good' photographers are going to have to step up their efforts both in their photography and efforts to sell it.

With the democratisation of publishing, the difficulty that writers and
photographers will have is to find a way of getting the right exposure to
the right people. People are not going to look at a great many places in
search of good work, so the outlets will coalesce around a few sites for
each audience - there will be a huge proliferation of overlapping audiences
- and somebody will curate each site.

The real question is what's going to happen to the work of good writers, good photographers & good artists when the answer to the question "Can I make a living doing this?" becomes universally NO.

Not even talking about getting rich; just about earning enough so you can convince the landlord that *someday* he might eventually collect at least part of the back rent.
