If you're referring to me, writing is my art. Nursing is my career. I write not to make money, but simply to write. Ask any other artist. They do what they do because it's what they love, not to please others, not to make money, not for just any reason, but because that's what they love doing and they just can't not do it. And if your art happens to make tons of money, well, then, awesome.
A close friend of mine is a singer/guitarist/songwriter and plenty of people have told him the same thing you said. He hasn't quit yet. It's what he loves to do and he just can't stop doing it. It doesn't make him a ton of money like it does some others out there, but he just will not stop. It's because when he writes/plays/sings his songs, he puts out a piece of himself in his art.
That is art at its finest.
