You can't be too old to be a writer, but you can definitely be too young!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But I'm too old to be written about as a young poet.
I wrote my first book at 20, but my whole focus from about the age of 12 was to be a writer.
From age 7 on, I wanted to be a writer.
I just don't think I can write someone drastically younger than me.
Even when I think I'm writing really young, they say it's too mature.
Although I always loved reading and putting words on paper, I never thought about becoming a writer until I was twelve.
I can't seem to write young enough anymore.
I've been writing since I was really young, so I considered myself a writer for a really long time.
One likes to think one grows as a writer as one ages, else all you get is an 'old' young writer. Beyond that is the changing landscape of the universe and the stories I choose to tell.
You don't make a decision about being a writer. There was a point, aged 21, when it became clear that this is who I am. The choice is how good you are going to be at it and how hard you are going to work.
