I know I ask a lot, but I was wondering if somebody would be so kind to translate this sentence into any of the English dialects: When I was thirteen I realised I would never be the centre forward of Dinamo, and when I read „Cossacks“ from Tolstoy it was clear that I will become a writer.
I would be grateful.
I would be grateful.

For example, in US rural Southwestern dialect (Oklahoma, Texas, etc.) it might be:
"When I war jus' thirteen year, I already knowed I warn't ne'er gonna be no Dinamo cenner forward, ever. But then I read "Cossacks" by the Rooshian, Tolstoy, and I knowed right then and there I was gonna become a writer."
"When I war jus' thirteen year, I already knowed I warn't ne'er gonna be no Dinamo cenner forward, ever. But then I read "Cossacks" by the Rooshian, Tolstoy, and I knowed right then and there I was gonna become a writer."
