Nowadays it seems as though people sit down to write what they know is going to be a trilogy.

I'd never written a novel before, and I wrote a novel, and that turned out OK.

I think the danger with using the term 'trilogy' is that it sets up particular expectations in the reader's mind.

I've never actually even contemplated writing a book or having a book.

I never wanted to be a writer.

This is what I always wanted to do in my entire life, so I am not going to sit here and complain that it is so terrible to be in successful movies, because it becomes a trilogy!

I never intended to become a writer.

I never set out to be a published writer.
