You don't need any education to become a writer, but it helps. Since many writers end up teaching at colleges and universities then you'll probably need a B.A., M.F.A., and Phd. in English, all of which will take a total of ten years in college. If you are heavily published by the time you get your M.F.A. (this isn't the norm, but it could happen) then you might not need that Phd., which would save you three years.
