Writing a book & need to survive while doing it.

I have been a professional painter/ older home restorer for 20 plus years and have found many ways to SAVE MONEY and raise value on any structure. Recently I have torn ligaments in my primary arm and sidelined from working. Now, is a good of time as any to write a book and tell the Secrets & Shortcuts to everyone saving and raising value in their home. My only problem is surviving with my bills while doing so. I have a campaign on kickstarter, but NO luck there. I have no friends. If people will help me to survive while doing this I will send an ecopy of the finished product to everyone who donates. But you have to leave me an email to send it too. Thank You
