I was probably 35 when I wrote the first story. The voice is kind of a mix in that it has a young voice, but it's also someone who's looking back. I like that kind of double vision.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
When I wrote my first story, all the characters were teenagers because I think 16, 17 is a great age.
I liked 35 and in both my novels that is the age of the lead characters. I tried making them my age but they just seemed to keep moaning about stuff.
I was a late bloomer. I was 38 when my first book was out and 43 when my first crime novel was out. I had a story that could only be told as a crime story. I think the genre is good; it deals with the fundamental questions of life and death. The problem is there are too many bad crime stories.
I wrote my first book when I was in my late thirties.
The first story I finished was when I was six years old.
I was about 13, in some ways, when I wrote the first book. Approximately 18 when I wrote the second.
I've always played characters that were younger than myself.
In 'A Likely Story,' I wanted to recreate the events, the mood, and the imagery of my life as a teenager. I was thirty-seven when I wrote it.
I was 40 when I did my first movie.
I wrote my first story when I was six or seven.
