Hi Haden - love your question, because it's something I've thought about quite a bit. I've also asked myself this type of question for many years.
I would ask yourself why you like writing, archery, and building. Try to understand what about these activities you enjoy. Work backwards and make a list of the reasons you love the things you love.
Often times there are many, many careers that will satisfy these reasons. Then try to match that with what you are good at!
This is just a starting point, but it's a great place to start to help you understand yourself and that there are most likely many jobs you could be happy doing one day.
Keep in mind this list will probably change over time.
Hope this help!

I think AI will take over writing in the years to come, so unless you are a really good writer, that might be a bad career choice. (You should still write for fun however-maybe a daily journal?).
If you like building, and you like school and math, you could become an architect. If you don't like school so much, you could become a contractor. Both of those careers can be lucrative, and both will require long hours.
Archery? Not sure as a career, but maybe you can find a college that will give you an archery scholarship.
I agree with the person above who says your likes can change. I'm sure they will over time, so don't lock yourself into just one thing. Better to expose yourself to as many things as possible, this will help you to decide what you really like.
As for me, I started college at art school, and eventually graduated with a degree in Landscape Architecture. Landscape Architecture combined my design background with engineering and the environment.
Good luck with whatever you choose.
