Advertising was only meant to be a very small part of my life. I had intended that I would work extensively in journalism for about five or six years and then I'd become a writer.

I did not read newspapers until I became a reporter.

After I left high school and got my GED, I studied broadcast journalism for a year at a community college.

I used to be a journalist.

It turned out I really didn't like journalism. I wanted to make up stories, not cover real events.

For many years I was engaged in journalism, writing articles and chronicles for the daily press without ever joining the staff of any newspaper.

I started out in the journalism program, but I got kicked out. I wasn't very good at it. It wasn't where I wanted to be ultimately.

I got rejected from journalism school!

I always wanted to be some kind of writer or newspaper reporter. But after college... I did other things.
