Do you think we are born writers or can it become something you want to do whether you were born to it or not?Lenorahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18201614257423264316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-5803820929112229852012-03-16T11:01:39.640-07:002012-03-16T11:01:39.640-07:00I've always been a reader!

LOL (And read it over and over until we bought a new box of cereal) :) I also read shampoo bottles and magazines. And I loved going to the Book Mobile that came to my neighborhood! I sat inside and read as long as possible and then would check out books.<br /><br />I didn't think of writing until I was an adult.Missy Tippenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05480008023330542958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-3634670809091307602012-03-16T07:28:10.479-07:002012-03-16T07:28:10.479-07:00I loved writing as a child, and my stories often h...I loved writing as a child, and my stories often hung on the bulletin board in my classroom. Loved that positive affirmation!<br /><br />Wrote my first book in 3rd grade about seven girls. The title: We are Seven. How creative! :)<br /><br />In 9th grade, I wrote a suspense story that I still think about. At that point, I knew suspense would be my genre.<br /><br />Happy St. Patty's Day Weekend to all!Debby Giustihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09463321611980242375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4945907563318808519.post-25818318346513821472012-03-16T04:14:06.759-07:002012-03-16T04:14:06.759-07:00I will rather speak of how I became a reader.

I would borrow one book and return it the following day after reading to borrow another. My whole class turned to the library because of me. The librarian couldn't help it, one day he called me and said, "Fisayo, if you can read your textbooks as much as you read novels, you will be an excellent student."<br /><br />I picked up writing along the way too. Some stories did not end the way I wanted so I will want to finish it. I also wanted to write Christian romance, so little by little, I started writing, most of my works are drama scripts, for i sure am an actress.OLUFISAYO ALABIhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04063018632978796451noreply@blogger.com
