What do you do?

I still have to think about that answer when asked. Sure, I've been paid for my writing but I'd hardly say I'm making a living at it. So can I honestly say I'm a writer? I'm not one to quibble about such things usually, but I am a guy that likes a bit of honesty in a conversation. I certainly don't want to mislead anyone. But it's not like I'm telling them I play for the Minnesota Twins - although I caught an orange as it rolled off the counter - I could still play in the show....

Shit, I'm telling people I'm a writer. I wrote a freaking novel for pity's sake! And I'm writing another one too so there! But it still feels kinda weird saying it out loud....
