    Is it possible to be an architect and published fiction author at the same time?

    Yes, of course it's possible. Even some published authors need more money. It's not uncommon for writers to take jobs to help them pay the bills. You can definitely juggle the two if you have the determination and patience.

    Your favourite author?
