Writer's Fallout Shelter

Wow, this really did go and go didn't it? I only expected a few replies from sage individuals offering pearls of wisdom from their long years spent honing their craft. not a debate on the nature of identity! My take is that it's fine to call yourself a writer as long as writing is a part of your life! being an author though requires your writing to have an aufdience! as for all those who wnat to make it as an author for a lving, trust me, there is so much crap out there (I work in a book shop) that more or less anyone can get published and there's no way that any one on this site is hopeless! we all have each other to elarn from after all!

I mean, our best sellers at work are two bio's of hooligans and career criminals so please, write, get published and knock the thugs from the top spot!
