Well, any keen thinker is a philosopher in some capacity or other. It's already been mentioned that you don't need to be paid for teaching philosophy to actually practice some form of it, whether in your work, or daily life, or both.
Saraph agrees with you, Lush. There are some fine philosophers here on the Barrow-Downs, even. I consider myself one, not because I plan on writing a book divulging my opinions on the secrets of life and ect, but because I write fiction with hints of my opinions about life.

This is what all fiction writers do. Lord of the Rings would be a bland, childish story if it didn't have philosophical points ingrained into its very core.
