Just do it. Don't worry about whether you will be financially successful or not. You do not have to give up your life as it is now to write a book. It just takes some diligence and committing to that 7000 words a week. Which is really not that much once you get rolling.

Taking a story that only existed in your head and putting it in words. That story gets to live on beyond you and if your lucky other people will like your particularly brand of insanity too.

I like to take a break and do something completely different to writing to work it out. Normally Ill go read a book, or play some video games and it resolves itself. In the worst cases I go talk it out with someone.
