Creating a Place for Myself Author's Profile By Yu miri on Oct 30 2014 17:57:25 Vol.25 Autumn 2014 It has been 28 years since I chose to write as my occupation. My parents divorced while I was in elementary school. During junior high I lost my mental balance and was no longer able to go to school; at 15 I was expelled from high school. Ever since I was young I’ve liked reading books and writing, so I decided to make writing my work. At 18, I made my debut as a playwright with “To My Friend in the Water,” and after composing 10 plays, began to write novels. In 1997, when I was 28, I received the Akutagawa Prize for my novel Family Cinema. The Akutagawa Prize is Japan’s most famous literary award.
