Yes, it could be writing books or music or blogging. I think "content creator" is a good general term to distinguish between intellectual property and the promotional/sales side.

I'm kind of going by this Wikipedia use of the word "content":

Terminology[edit]

The word "content" is often used colloquially to refer to media. However, content is more accurately used as a specific term in that it means the content of the medium rather than the medium itself.

However, I may be using it in a more general sense than most people tend to use it.
