When you were little, did you expect to become a writer?

I'm not sure I expect to become a writer now - I simply am, but as a hobby, not a career.

As a kid, I thought my career would be as a teacher. I listed the top three when I was very small and they were actress, writer and teacher and the older I got, the more only one of those sounded like a realistic career path.

In the end, I've gone a very different route and I'm an Application Support Specialist.

I still write in my free time though and maybe I'll switch to publishing/ editing in a few years. I doubt I'd ever be a full time author.

Nah, I couldn't read or write as a kid.

When I was little, I just expected little.
When I grew a little older, I expected weird.
And when I was a teenager, I wanted to be a writer! Because this way, no matter what you write, someone will appreciate it for some reason. XD
Alone is what I have, alone protects me.



This is a message to all you out there. You don't have to be the fastest writer. You don't have to write 2000 words in one sitting. But if you put your mind to it and really love your project, you can and will get further along than you ever thought possible.
