Insecure Writer's Support Group #10

October's IWSG is upon us. Sign up here.

This month has been another good one. Outside In Trusts No One is published in a week and I took part in a panel at a convention about it, albeit virtually. I also publish another batch of seven articles on Medium, but it's become readily apparent that I can't keep up a daily habit for the site, nor that my stock in trade is setting it alight.

This month's optional question:
When you think of the term working writer, what does that look like to you? What do you think it is supposed to look like? Do you see yourself as a working writer or aspiring or hobbyist, and if latter two, what does that look like? 

This month's optional answer:
I am a writer and I get paid for it, but I still see myself as working toward being a working writer. I see it as being able to devote your time to writing whether it is to a single larger project or balancing a number of freelance jobs into a patchwork that pays the rent.
