Quote

In retrospect, it seems like everything in my life led to me becoming a writer. I just didn't realise it at the time.

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

I cannot recall any moment of clarity about becoming a writer. I always liked to read. That's what did it.

Writing happened to me. I didn't decide to start writing or to be a writer. I never wanted to be a writer.

I always just wanted to be a writer, not necessarily a particular kind of writer.

I always wanted to be a writer.

I don't think I knew I would be a writer. I wanted to become a writer, and I tried to write.

I was always meant to be a writer. I've felt that way since I was a child.
