#WritersCoffeeClub Day 27: What is a load-bearing part of your non-writerly life that makes it possible for you to write?
I am a steadily profitable online poker player, and (for now at least) I earn more money from that than I do from writing -- so I fit my writing around my poker, rather than vice versa.
While I'm pretty damn good at both writing and poker (and music for that matter) I'm not good enough to turn professional at any of them. Not quite.
