Did I End Up Becoming a Writer?

Okay, let's rephrase. Did I eventually become a writer? Did I or did I not? Do we think that we would become writers? That's all we would do when we grow up? Write? Is it essential to publish what you have written? When do I start my own publishing house?

"Wait a minute, did not you just say you wanted to write...now you are saying you want to publish? Let me do a reality check for you. Writers cannot publish and publishers cannot write; because there is a huge capitalist structure that works between these two worlds. You have to run a painstakingly long and complex marathon to reach from one end to the other. Hold on, you are supposed be an artist, aren't you one??????"
