Some people are painters, and some are ballet dancers, and I'm a writer.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm a writer; it's not just what I do, but who I am.
My friends tend to be writers. I think writers and painters are really all the same-we just sit in our rooms.
Writing is my job. I don't think of it as art.
I don't see myself as an artist, as a writer. The sort of writing that I do, which is popular fiction, it's work. I have contracts to fulfil, and I have deadlines to meet.
From an artist's point of view, I always want to work with the writers I admire.
I think I am a writer, but professionally I feel drawn to and suited for directing.
Generally my focus has been on people who make things, whether it's writers or directors or painters or musicians.
I look at the dancers and I get the inspiration for the work from them.
There's a great social component to being a writer, to being an artist.
Actually, yeah, I am an artist. I draw.
