No, not published yet - but am trying to look at writing as the job I love - rather than the hobby I sometimes dabble in. Does it matter if I'm not paid to do it yet? Do I have to be published before I can call myself a writer?
I remember when I was going to Trent University - the young men in my poetry class were ready to call themselves "poets," or "writers", whereas the women were more likely to say, "I like to write - or, I'd like to become a writer, someday." I still wonder what it was in our upbringing that made us do that - and if young women today experience the same thing?
