The kind of writer I do and don't want to be

1. I don't want to write only to get published. 
2. I want to continue writing no matter what because I love it.
3. If/when I'm published, I don't want to be ungrateful and never be satisfied because of what I don't have (six figure deals, movies, awards, huge twitter followings). 
4. If/when I'm published, I want to be content with the fact that my dream's come true and a physical book exists with the word I wrote.
5. I don't want to feel the need to degrade other genres/writers just because they're successful and I'm not.
6. I want to praise all writers for the fact that they did something hard and published a book, and praise even more highly those who I think did a fan-freaking-tastic job. 
7. If I do become one of the few lucky who's really successful at a writing, I don't ever want to forget that for all the work I did put in, I'm only a slice of the reason why I'm able to support myself in it.

This is my list. What's yours?
