Some of your expenses as an author are tax deductible, but some are not!

How can you tell the difference?

The IRS explains what makes a business expense a tax deduction:

“To be deductible, a business expense must be both ordinary and necessary.

An ordinary expense is one that is common and accepted in your trade or business.

A necessary expense is one that is helpful and appropriate for your trade or business.

An expense does not have to be indispensable to be considered necessary.
