    Power is pretty corrupting and anyone who is a famous person (as in, public enough to maintain fame as opposed to just broad recognition) probably has a bit of an ego.

    I mean your average normal person would be like “Don’t idolise me, I’m just someone who writes books you like. Now please leave me alone” not posting on tumblr to adoring young fans.

      Your normal person would start out as “don’t idolize me” but that much attention is in itself corrupting over time.

      Enough people tell you, your shit doesn’t stink, and eventually you believe them. From there it just gets worse.
