Seriously? Well okay...I was just gonna say that one of my kids is probably your age then. Funny, huh?
I don't know when I actually started enjoying writing; I really can't remember a time when I wasn't writing. And it wasn't really about enjoying it, although I did. It was more like a compulsion. I just seemed to be able to organize my thoughts better on paper. I loved playing with words and coming up with fresh metaphors and just looking at things from a different way than everyone else around me did.
I could write my full name at 3 1/2, and by age 6, I was writing my own little 'books.' I didn't really write much poetry until I was 14 and got my heart broken for the first time. And , of course it wasn't the last, so I kept on writing it! If nothing else, broken hearts can lead to good poetry, if you work at it enough. LOL
