Ten great reasons NOT to become a writer...

One -   You might start scrabbling up a career ladder and make loads of money instead


Two -   You won't have to write every day


Three - You might not become a lunatic (no guarantees)


Four -   You might become less intense a person, less anal, less OCD (again, no guarantees)


Five -   You won't approach every personal trauma with: "this'll make a cracking plot"


Six -     You might not stow away conversations in a notebook or get kicked under the table by your partner for staring at people in pubs


Seven - You could have a great looking garden, and hobbies, even


Eight -  You'll save loads of money on ink and paper, notebooks and pens. (Unless you become a journalist or a parish councillor instead)


Nine -   You might maintain a healthy distance from yourself, avoid self-analysis, self-absorption. (You might even get out more)


Ten -    You might end up a nice sun-kissed colour without a chair-shaped arse and RSI (unless your day job is in IT)
