True but at least "writer" is easier to further conversation. This is a real conversation I once had: "What do you do?" "I'm an artist" "So what do you do?" "..

- krisoft 4y agoThat person didn’t want to indulge you in trying to simplify them and put them in a box they don’t agree with. There is nothing wrong with that. If they wanted to “further the conversation” they could have shown you examples of what they do, or told about their art more. If they choose not to that is on them. Perhaps they were tired, perhaps they found your question boring, perhaps they had some insecurities around their art or you, perhaps you rubbed them the wrong way.
