Quote

I have never stopped considering not becoming a writer.

I can't say that I ever actually decided to become a writer. It kind of snuck up on me.

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

I never wanted to be a writer. I still don't.

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

I pretty much always wanted to be a writer.

I always wanted to be a writer.

I've wanted to be a writer since I was a boy, though it seemed an unlikely outcome since I showed no real talent. But I persevered and eventually found my own row to hoe. Ignorance of other writers' work keeps me from discouragement and I am less well-read than the average bus driver.

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

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