I can't seem to write young enough anymore.

Even when I think I'm writing really young, they say it's too mature.

You can't be too old to be a writer, but you can definitely be too young!

But I'm too old to be written about as a young poet.

I didn't write anything until I was well over 30.

I've been writing since I was 19.

Since the moment I could hold a pencil, I have spent nearly all day every day writing. And there is not an age group that I have not written for. You can read me from birth 'til death.

Well, I always wanted to write from the time I was very little, and my mother encouraged me. She wrote a journal from the time she was 15 up until about the age of 76.

Anyone who says that writing for children or teens is easier than writing for adults has never tried it, because they are so much more critical than adults. You cannot get anything past them.
