What kind of writing pays the best?

According to Elmore Leonard: Ransom Notes.

I have to give "mad props", as the kids say, or "a shout out" to Elmore. He writes great stories that almost always adapt well to film.

Has anyone read one of his books before it made it to the silver screen? I have not. I'm still trying to get through ATLAS SHRUGGED. I have to put it down every 2 pages so I can haunt the neighborhood looking for an investment banker to strangle.
