How about....all of the above? Nah, just joking.

Although the split between Producer / Actor / Tech/Crew gets pretty blurred sometimes.

I'm not a critic or a dancer and I dont sing or act anymore. I rarely go as an audience because I'm usually working on something. But I do pretty much all the others regularly. I come close to making a living as a tech.
I voted writer as that is my central focus these days.

Is that all there is? Well if that's all there is my friend, then let's keep dancing.

I voted for Writer.
How sad that only 4% of the voters agree with me.
A poor reflection of the industry that more people rate acting and singing above all other roles.

It would be safer to assume that 4% of people who participated in this poll voted for "writer". Many others may not have voted at all, and even more may not actually visit this site.

Based on this, I'd say it was a more skewed reflection than a poor one.

I would say it is more a reflection of the active participants of this site rather than the industry in general, which is sort of what Eliot already said....

This is a pole of what you do, not what you like best.
I'd love to write. However I haven't the ability so Acting is my deal.

This has been said many times before, the appearance of comments and threads are based upon the votes posted by registered members. In truth, Grant rarely votes on anything except the occasional item or thread. If you feel your posts have been voted down, then maybe you should consider why someone didn't think it was good enough, anyone. I will come right out now and say that I have personally voted up and down both comments and threads based on what I saw as their relevance and worth. Maybe I voted some of your down? Hard to say as you are not registered.
