The idea of being a 'child star' always sounded awful to people my age, and so I was just very aware that these things are kind of fleeting and that a lot of it didn't have to do with me: it had to do with my age; it had to do with whatever came to mind when people thought of a young internet sensation.

I'm an essayist. And this is a genre that has existed for a few thousand years. Ever heard of Cicero?
