I'm a writer, and I will write what I want to write.
‐‐ J. K. Rowling
I'm a writer, and the subject is less important than the act of writing itself.
‐‐ Jess Walter
I'm a writer and this is what I love to do.
‐‐ Gloria Estefan
I'm a writer, and what I do is write. I wasn't able to do anything else.
‐‐ Hugh Leonard
I'm a writer; as soon as I imagine what would happen if I found the fountain of youth, it turns into a dystopia in my head.
‐‐ Marie Brennan
I'm a writer because I love reading. I love the conversation between a reader and a writer, and that it all takes place in a book-sort of a neutral ground. A writer puts down the words, and a reader interprets the words, and every reader will read a book differently. I love that.
‐‐ Garth Stein
I'm a writer first and a singer second.
‐‐ Lana Del Rey
I'm a writer first and a singer second. And then I started editing my own videos when I was 17, so it's a process I've been doing since I was younger.
‐‐ Lana Del Rey
I'm a writer first and a woman after.
‐‐ Katherine Mansfield
I'm a writer first and an editor second... or maybe third or even fourth. Successful editing requires a very specific set of skills, and I don't claim to have all of them at my command.
‐‐ Lynn Abbey
I'm a writer, first and foremost, and I sort of take my cues from the songwriters of the '70s, who are talking about what's really important to them.
‐‐ Tift Merritt
I'm a writer. I don't support any war. That's my principle.
‐‐ Haruki Murakami
I'm a writer. I just love telling stories.
‐‐ Kurt Busiek
I'm a writer; I like to retain subtlety and nuance.
‐‐ Lois Lowry
I'm a writer; I'm a producer. I've certainly spread myself over a lot of different careers.
‐‐ Dan Bucatinsky
I'm a writer. I'm not an actress.
‐‐ Tatiana de Rosnay
I'm a writer. I never expected to be recognised on the street. I never expected to get that kind of coverage, good or bad. I never expected to sell as many books as I have.
‐‐ James Frey
I'm a writer; I've worked as much as a writer as I have as an actor, so I was in a script-note session at Imagine for a TV show I wrote that they were producing, and they happened to say, 'You'd be great as Crosby, do you want to do this show we're doing, 'Parenthood?'
‐‐ Dax Shepard
I'm a writer! If you work in an office, it dampens you. It makes you fit a routine. The effect of being a writer is not dissimilar to being long-term unemployed. And everyone knows that is not good for you.
‐‐ Mark Haddon
I'm a writer. In Latin America, they say I'm a Latin-American writer because I also write in Spanish and my books are translated, but I am an American citizen and my books are published here, so I'm also an American writer.
‐‐ Isabel Allende
I'm a writer; it's not just what I do, but who I am.
‐‐ Beverly Lewis
I'm a writer, not a genre.
‐‐ Carlos Fuentes
I'm a writer, not a professional runner. It's fun and it helps me write. I need powerful concentration.
‐‐ Haruki Murakami
I'm a writer, not an activist. My job is to analyse things, to think them through and examine them.
‐‐ Ariel Levy
I'm a writer. Now I've started to be on television. I have a big mouth. And I have good TV teeth, they say.
‐‐ Steven Cojocaru
I'm a writer obsessed with remembering: with remembering the past of America above all - and above all, that of Latin America, intimate land condemned to forgetfulness.
‐‐ Eduardo Galeano
I'm a writer of faith who worries about the intolerance of religion. I look at the past and fear we haven't learned from it. I believe that humanity is capable of evil as well as great acts of courage and goodness. I have hope. Deep down, I believe in the human spirit, although sometimes that belief is shaken.
‐‐ Julianna Baggott
I'm a writer slash designer slash TV personality.
‐‐ Lauren Conrad
I'm a writer, so I like dissecting things.
‐‐ Hal Sparks
I'm a writer, so whatever gymnastics jump through my head, I write about it.
‐‐ Earl King
I'm a writer. The more I act, the more resistance I have to it. If you accept work in a movie, you accept to be entrapped for a certain part of time, but you know you're getting out. I'm also earning enough to keep my horses, buying some time to write.
‐‐ Sam Shepard
I'm a writer who just happens to draw.
‐‐ Matt Groening
I'm a writer who likes to be influenced.
‐‐ Kenneth Koch
I'm a writer who simply can't know what I'm writing about until the writing lets me discover it. In a sense, my writing process embraces the gapped nature of my memory process, leaping across spaces that represent all I've lost and establishing fresh patterns within all that remains.
‐‐ Floyd Skloot
I'm a writer who stacks cat food for a living. It's true: I have a master's degree in creative writing, I've published two critically successful books, and I get paid to replenish the shelves of my local food co-op with pet food, sponges and toilet paper. Nine days out of 10, I do it quite happily.
‐‐ Ali Liebegott
I'm a yarn teller. My job is to engage you as much as I can and as often as I can.
‐‐ Ridley Scott
I'm a yarnaholic. That means I have more yarn stashed away than any one person could possibly use in three or four lifetimes. There's something inspiring about yarn that makes me feel I could never have enough.
‐‐ Debbie Macomber
I'm a Yente and I have a terrible accent.
‐‐ Lynn Samuels
I'm a yes person. I'm too concerned with trying to make too many people happy.
‐‐ Jorja Fox
I'm a Yogi and a tea drinker, and having a gun is the last thing that one would expect of me as a human being.
‐‐ Brenda Strong
I'm a yogi, not a businessman.
‐‐ Bikram Choudhury
I'm a young actor and I haven't learned everything there is about acting.
‐‐ Lucas Neff
I'm a young correspondent, so sometimes I'm just young. Sometimes I'm just straightforward.
‐‐ Jessica Williams
I'm a young girl with an old soul. I wanted to fuse the two together, the past and the present.
‐‐ Melanie Fiona
I'm a young woman, and I'm growing up and trying to do it in a way I feel comfortable with.
‐‐ Selena Gomez
I'm a zero inbox guy.
‐‐ Denis McDonough
I'm able to give a voice to the athletes around the world - use my degree for something other than the power play.
‐‐ Angela Ruggiero
I'm able to hang up the character with the costume at the end of the movie.
‐‐ Kevin Spacey
I'm able to leave Don Draper at work. I'm quite dissimilar from him in real life.
‐‐ Jon Hamm
