Okay, we talk a lot about writers biographies on here. Now, let's consider this.
Is there a notable writer who is valued not just for being an outsider or pioneer or his success in genre fiction, who didn't start writing seriously until his 20s or better yet 30s, never went to university, had no familial or otherwise friendly relationship with another writer or artist and had to work a normal job because his family had neither money nor property.
I am talking about John Smith, Pierre Paul, Tom Middleclass, Max Mustermann, who one day had the epithany to start writing and worked so dilligently that he not only sparked success but lit genius.
Bonus points if you know more than one.

Choose that which you wish to be. But, please, before you become a man or a woman in the hope that you might correct the wrong that nature has wrought upon you; and before you take on the advice of the authors you seek and the anons who respond to your questions; and before you change yourself for the sake of personal validation; first, please, become the best version of yourself that you can be.

You are complete as you are - as you are. And know this before you would subject yourself to any change in body or mind. And thence add or remove as much as you wish, but understand that the glass is never half-empty or half-full; its size and volume are always replete, and you are now no less the dignified individual you desire to become. You don't need to reject anything about yourself or extol those traits which you yet possess, anon.

Also, check 'em.
