I am also a professional writer, and my work has been published many times in multiple languages.
What books have I written? None. I don’t write books.
I write technical documentation for a software company.
And many of customers use Google’s translation software to read it in their native language.
I realize that my saying that I am a writer is as much a lie as the guy who paints the lines on the street being a painter, who’s work is seen by thousands… perhaps millions.
But I never call myself an artist.
Because unlike most artists,
I get paid.

ty… and, yes. “Many of customers” was deliberate. You know, because I write documentation. ;)
