I'm a novelist, that's how i make my livelihood, and i concentrate on the novels.
A novelist needs to know his own strong points and weak points.
You get spoiled as a novelist because you get to be the director and the editor, and you play all the parts, but as a screenwriter, you are a bit down the ladder.
