Just based on what is on my site does anyone think I could make a career out of being a writer?

excellent, excellent, excellent. Your tone, and the way you write is very compelling. I genuinely like it.
If you have doubts, one day I found to really take a look at my own work is to read it outloud. You can not only see what you wrote but hear it. It really helps. I bookmarked it so I can go back later and read the rest of your pieces.
Keep it up.

Yes, I think you are a good writer and could possibly make a career out of it. You have some punctuation problems, mainly run on sentences, but that can be fixed through editing and proof reading. You write very well. You know how to convey ideas in an interesting and intelligent way. Go For it!!!

Your idea is very good.
While your paragraphs are much longer than they should be, the point you got across is perfect. The words flow nicely and the introduction was very catching. A great way to start off the story. The events moved smoothly together and the end of the chapter is a wonderful way to leave us thinking about the man. It makes us look forward to the next installment.
So just try to work on those paragraphs and double check your punctuation. Keep writing and I'm sure if you clean it up a bit you'd have yourself one hell of a young adult series.
The best of luck to you!

I think there's potential there, but I'm going to agree with some of the other comments: Check grammer and punctuation a bit. Also, try to stay away from repeating the same thing over and over.
And don't hope too hard for getting something published...it's difficult work for a first time author.

How should i put it?
These days you don't need special skills to become a writer. If you find a story controversial enough and add some thrilling parts, you've got a bestseller there.
Write something like "The Botticelli code". Success is guaranteed.

You're pretty good. Anyone can be a writer if they keep at it.

Some grammar mistakes sprinkled here and there, but overall the story can be enthralling.
