I've been writing stories, in one form or another, since I was a kid.

I have written stories since I was a child.

I've been writing stories since I was a kid. I love writing stories.

I wanted to write stories for myself. At first it was purely an aesthetic thing about craft. I just wanted to become good at the art of something. And writing was very private.

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

I started writing stories in my spare time.

I remember all the way back in high school thinking about writing books. And, in fact, I've written a lot of stories. I've got dozens of stories I've written that no one's ever seen.

In many ways, I've been writing personal stories all my life.

I was the typical little sister who wanted to be just like her older brother. When I was growing up, my brother wrote phenomenal stories, so I wanted to write them, too.

When I was as little as four years old, my mom would give me a pen and paper and tell me to write a story to keep me busy.
