I always treated writing as a profession, never as a hobby. If you don't believe in yourself, no one else will.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Writing is my profession. Photography is my hobby.
Writing is a lonely profession.
Most people won't realize that writing is a craft. You have to take your apprenticeship in it like anything else.
I think I'm a writer, and it's my job. People in other professions are expected to do their jobs all the time. Why shouldn't I?
One of the things I learnt over the years is that there is a craft to writing, like there is a craft to acting. I hadn't done my apprenticeship as a writer. I did try to be a writer for hire but I'm not any good at it.
I'm a writer; it's not just what I do, but who I am.
Writing is not a profession but a vocation of unhappiness.
I always loved writing, but never considered that I could do it professionally.
Writing doesn't leave much time for hobbies, unless you consider that I began writing as a hobby and have made the hobby into a profession.
Writing is just something I've always done. It's just kind of the reality of who I am.
