Were He and I Separated at Birth?

"Like a lot of writers, I can't really stand my own writing, in the same way that I don't really like my own cooking. And just as when I go out to eat, I tend not to order my signature dish - an overcooked and overspiced meat-stewy thing containing something inappropriate, like tinned peaches, and a side order of undercooked and flavourless vegetables - I really don't want to read anything that I could have come up with at my own computer. "
