I am an aspiring author who wants to write a novel and have it published. Problem is that I am disabled and receive benefits, so I can't receive royalties because the income stream is unpredictable and could jeopardize them. I have had thoughts of writing anyway on a socially conscious topic that could benefit the world somehow by way of my contribution. Do people do that (and are there examples)? Does anyone know of a charity or an organization that would welcome a socially conscious novel?
