This is true. It’s fun. Like painting or playing an instrument (I also do the latter). But it is legitimate means of making a living. Therefore I am a professional writer who is currently building a career and has been for many years. I recall my dad once saying, Vince doesn’t want to work for a living. This was when I was graduating from writing school.
Ha My dad used to say that a job is something you hate that gives you the money to do the things you love.
