If someone asks me the dreaded question: 'What do you do for a living?'. I always reply 'I'm a writer'. Being a writer is such a vague thing and could mean anything. It's an open ended title, and the usual follow-up question is 'What do you write about?'. You have the freedom to inject anything into the answer. Spout politics, complain and rant about current events, the person du jour etc
