you are right, of course, about the mean-spirited critiques. But there is a rather enormous spoiler in almost every review of my latest book.
I suspect I get paid rather well for what I do, considering, and having nothing to compare it to; only it is doled out in such parsimonious increments, with so many years between them, that the thrill is kind of lost on me. Short story writing is not as lucrative, but as far as instant gratification goes it is MUCH more satisfying!
I'm just really grateful my husband has a good enough job that he can handle the bills. The big $600 so far this year doesn't even cover my con attendance and subscriptions. Oh, well.
When I get that nice $25 check I'm waiting for, thought, I'll think of you. ;o)

No one is particualry impressed by JKC, so I don't think a name change would help. (I certainly hope it's more money than that, though.)
On the bright side, no one has posted tons of spoilers and really mean-spirited critiques of your latest book....all right, I'm grasping at straws.
Try to enjoy the adventure anyway. ;o)
