The answer to that is fairly simple-there was nothing else I was made to do. I was made to write stories and I love to write stories. That's why I do it. I really can't imagine doing anything else and I can't imagine not doing what I do.

What should you study in high school to become a writer?

1. English. 2. Everything else. --A writer. If you want to become a writer, you are logically dealing with words. Therefore, it is best to study your native language -- become an English major let's say. A curriculum which teaches you the mechanics of your language, guides you through the reading of classic works of literature, and workshops writing of your own is ideal. But remember, a writer need not necessarily go to school to become a writer. Writing itself is a skill which is honed by doing. Write whenever you have time. And read, and read, and read. Stephen King in ON WRITING says to read over 70-80 books a year (which includes listening to books on CD and audio tape). This is pretty good advice.
