I knew when I couldn't get to sleep cause i was planning a piece of writing!.I knew because i get mad at awkward wording!. I knew becasue I don't mind ditting for hours revising and revising and revising!. Its different for everyone, you just know, one day or another!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I knew I had a great imagination!. I knew my imagination needed to be put to use!. I loved to read, so I put two and two together and got five!. Meaning, if I wanted to be an actual writer who could live off their work I would add two and two together and get four!. It later came to me that, yes, I wanted to write, but I also wanted to do something else!. So while writing equates to almost the correct career for me - it wasn't dead on right!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Writing is a passion!. You just gotta keep doing it!. Not ALL the time, but a lot of it!. You observe people in action and think 'that'd make a good scene in my next story', etc!.

The art of writing is the art of applying the seat of the pants to the seat of the chair!.

Well if you feel a passion for writing and are determined to do it, I think you can sufficiently call yourself a writer!. Though I must say it didn't seem real for me until the first time somebody read my completed work!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

well one day i had a good idea for a book and since i hadn't found a book like it, i decided to start writing!. also if you like to write things then that would tell you that you are a writer!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I enjoy sitting on my butt in front of a computer moniter and microsoft word document typing out a new idea, or sitting on my butt on my floor with a red pen rewriting things I already did :-)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I got bored of reading!.
I was always making up scenarios in my head and one day I started to type them up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I enjoy writing and when I start, I can't stop! Later in life, I'd love to write TV show scripts!Www@QuestionHome@Com
