The first story I finished was when I was six years old.

I've been writing since I was 7, but before that, I was orally making stories.

I started writing stories when I was six years old. I was a very shy kid, extremely shy, and I had a fabulous first-grade teacher who told me to write.

When I was a little kid, before I learned how to write, I would tell stories.

I have written stories since I was a child.

I really started considering myself a writer when I was about seven or eight years old. I wrote stories from my dreams and kept them all in a notebook that I still have.

I began writing fictional stories and little screenplays when I was in fifth grade.

The first time I can remember thinking that I would like to be a writer came in sixth grade, when our teacher Mrs. Crandall gave us an extended period of time to write a long story. I loved doing it. I started working seriously at becoming a writer when I was seventeen.

I wrote my first play when I was eight.
