2010 was the year I could live entirely off income from books, that income being advances and royalties. That was 10 years after my first book came out and 5 years after my first novel. Prior to that freelancing and corporate writing paid my bills (and my wife's income was our safety margin). It helps I'm a bestselling author and I release a novel a year, so the income is relatively steady.
