I did a lot of my writing as though I was an academic, doing some piece of research as perfectly as possible.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I held a variety of jobs - most notably ten years working in universities - and kept on writing.
I went to school to study literature and writing, even though I didn't end up really doing that in the end.
I went to college, but I learned to write by reading - and writing.
I've always been a writer, and in high school, I was the editor of my school newspaper and I got a writing scholarship. It's always been a passion of mine.
I am not much of a researcher as a novelist; I write mainly from experience.
I do a lot of writing. People don't actually know how much writing really I do.
I do like the research part of writing, I must admit.
Well I tried to, but I could never write anything that I liked or was worthwhile. I threw it all out and realized that I had to make a serious study- that my tastes were far more advanced than my abilities.
Oddly enough, I never studied writing. I studied almost everything except writing.
My writing process is a mix of research, personal experiences, washing the dishes, raising kids while thinking - then writing.
