Holy crap kids, you can be a professional writer. there is literally no bar. I've never read anything in my feedback threads as bad as what I experienced thumbing through it.
Does "professional writer" have any meaning behind it anyway? Is that a badge that anyone pursues and flashes at others when the ministry of writing dishes it out?
If I want, I could spend money on creating hardbacks from my books. Would that make me a professional writer because I have physical copies of what I wrote?
