There might be a proper age to know how to tell a story, but there's no proper age to start telling them.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I love telling stories from a kid's point of view because they don't really see all the obstacles in front of them. They're resilient, and sometimes adults can steal that from them.
I want young readers to know that to tell their own story is the most important thing they'll ever do.
In my family, telling stories is just a way of life.
Everything runs its course. We had told a lot of stories that happened in our life. My kid was getting older, and we were running out of stories to tell.
If you really want to tell stories, do it and don't be dissuaded.
I think a story should take as long to tell as it is appropriate to that particular story.
If you're older you want to tell stories about the pool of human life and living and to communicate, not only to your age group but to do an age group that can begin to understand, that has enough experience of life far beyond the taste of life.
When I was a little kid, before I learned how to write, I would tell stories.
I think there is a human instinct to tell stories, no matter who you are or where you live.
When I wrote my first story, all the characters were teenagers because I think 16, 17 is a great age.
