So why did I become a writer?

I wanted to be a flight attendant but I was too tall.

I wanted to be a ballerina but I didn’t look good in a tu tu.

I wanted to be a lemonade businesswoman, but I drank up all my profits.

I’m joking, but it is true that I have many interests.  I love art and dance and anthropology and math and psychics and psychology and astronomy.  I love to travel and build and swim with the dolphins.  What other job is there where you can use all your interests and be anyone you want!!
