When I started to be a writer, I was not going to run the risk of boring you.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Writers shouldn't have lives that are interesting. It gets in the way of your work.
You don't say, I'm going to be a writer when I grow up - at least I didn't.
I have never stopped considering not becoming a writer.
I'm not sure if I always wanted to be a writer, but I was always writing.
It was only after five years in the army, when I was having to do a very boring job in a very boring place, that I thought: 'Why not try writing a novel?' partly out of youthful arrogance and partly because there had been a long line of writers in my mother's family.
I was always attracted and repelled by the idea of being a writer.
I never wanted to be a writer. I still don't.
I never wanted to be a writer. I mean, that's the last thing I wanted.
I've wanted to be a writer since I was a boy, though it seemed an unlikely outcome since I showed no real talent. But I persevered and eventually found my own row to hoe. Ignorance of other writers' work keeps me from discouragement and I am less well-read than the average bus driver.
Writers keep writing and publishers publishing - it never grows boring.
