I'm the world's best hockey player I just don't want to go through the hassle of skating.

You say that like it's a joke, and for hockey it probably is, but how many great football players fall through the cracks? How many are lost to the streets because it's not enough to simply be good at the sport, but you also have to be able to stay in school, play 3 years in college, and then finally you can get your chance. I know nothing about the writing industry, but it's not inconceivable that there are enough external hoops to jump through to make it in the industry that deter people with great writing ability from making it.
