I have always wanted to be an author and write a book but have never pursued it.

Not sure, I guess I just need to get started and create some written  work. What about you have you thought of becoming an author?
I've always wanted to be an author too, however I never seem to have time

My favourite author is currently Tim Weaver or Jodi Picoult. I like most genres of books but currently I'm reading a lot of crime. What about you?
