Harry, re your professional writer as a job.
I agree that a professional writer treats his writing as a job. I merely point out that in these days of great economic flux, no person's job is guaranteed to be there tommorrow. Consider all the technical professionals whose jobs have been off-shored to other countries, and the loss of factory worker jobs in high-pay zones. These people didn't want their livelyhoods to go away, but they disappeared nonetheless. A professional writer has to face the disintergration of his markets and the loss of his paid profession just like any other skilled worker, these days.
