A Goodreads user asked Katherine Arden:

Dear Katherine Arden, may you please tell me since when you had the idea that you wanted to be a novelist?

Katherine Arden I always liked to write, but I didn't decide I wanted to be a novelist until I was 24, out of college. I wrote The Bear and the Nightingale, decided I liked it, and haven't stopped.
