Answer: Yes, the author is using the term "glamorous" sarcastically. He's hinting that, contrary to popular belief, becoming an author is difficult and exciting. His job is demanding and exhausting.

Explanation: I had this question on an assignment based on the reading "On Writing Well by William Zinsser".

Well, Its whatever the author is talking about. it's depending on the book or story. Like the Genre. It Varies, so he might be implying that it really is a glamorous piece of work or he is being sarcastic. Words and the way\ tone you use is very important.
