I was reading this novel, The other side of the story, it's about two authors, an agent and their normal lives...and I was wondering, Have you ever thought that a lot of the biggest authors in history were mad, or with some problems in their childhood and adolescence...well, i checked and it's more than true, so now i am convinced that to be a great writer you've got to get some sort of problems...of any kind, just something you can write about, that halves my chance to became a great writer...i'm so normal and almost boring that aything I'd write would be intersting and heart-rending to find someone who'd read it...
