Quote

I knew from the age of seven that I was meant to be a writer.

I really started considering myself a writer when I was about seven or eight years old. I wrote stories from my dreams and kept them all in a notebook that I still have.

From age 7 on, I wanted to be a writer.

I was writing from the time I was 12 years old, but I originally wanted to be a novelist.

By the time I was 7 or 8, I wanted to be a comedy writer.

I wrote my first book at 20, but my whole focus from about the age of 12 was to be a writer.

I think I was 16 when I had the thought of maybe being a writer. And this is complicated, something I only now understand, because when I was young, having dyslexia and not knowing it made reading such an ordeal.

I've been writing since I was really young, so I considered myself a writer for a really long time.

I was kind of an outsider growing up, and I preferred reading to being with other kids. When I was about seven, I started to write my own books. I never thought of myself as wanting to be a writer - I just was one.

When I was about 14 or 15 I decided to become a writer and never for a moment since have I wanted to do anything else.
