I have been writing songs and poems since I was a little girl. I started writing short scripts, which evolved into the idea for a book.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I had always written. I had written stories and poems. Then I started writing plays.
When I first started to get into writing, it was via music. I'd generate ideas for songs that would turn into stories, then they'd turn into novels. I was biased toward music.
When I became more involved in music, I had to give up some of my writing in the literary sense. However, on occasion, I would write something for my own pleasure or I would write notes and introductory remarks in the songbooks I put together.
I started writing short fiction very briefly, as I imagine is the case for some novelists.
I have written my whole life. I remember writing as a small child.
I like writing my own stuff. If a book came along I would maybe do that.
I've written poetry since I was a kid. As the years went on, I got into writing stories and screenplays, but I always, always kept up with poetry as well.
I wrote a lot when I was younger, though never anything like plays or scripts.
I didn't write anything at all except book reports until I was in seventh grade, and then I wrote mostly poetry for myself.
When I was in college, I used to write little ditties and short stories and poetry for my friends. Writing a book is another thing. It is so much different from my traditional day of dirty fingernails and greasy hair and hot pans.
