A writer is what I am.

I am a writer because writing is the thing I do best.

I'm a writer; it's not just what I do, but who I am.

To be a writer is to connect and to play and to attempt to see clearly and understand. It astounds me regularly that feeling things deeply and writing them down is basically my job description.

Being a writer is not the point. Writing is.

I am a writer perhaps because I am not a talker.

I've never thought of myself as a writer. I still don't, despite all the writing I've done.

People are both more willing and less willing to talk to you when you're a writer.

I don't really consider myself a writer.

I'm not sure if I always wanted to be a writer, but I was always writing.
