your very first writing

[cacian]

How old were you when you first took to writing and what did you write?

I was I think about five when I took to writing and my very first piece I can remember is a piece of poetry.

I could've sworn you've asked this before...?

Hi Volya nice to see you around. I was not sure but if I did then haha too late.:p

[hillwalker]

I was 37 and I wrote my name.

Are you seriously expecting anyone to remember such a trivial event? And assuming we can, what's the point?

Hehehe. Its Cacian's way that I call mundane profundity. Like... why do you scratch an itch?

Welcome to 2013...it's like 2012 just sometimes phrased slightly differently.....and in this case not.
Good to know that the pool of inanity has a bottom.

I can't remember my exact age, but I've been reading and writing since I learnt too :)
I have some old notebooks from when I was young filled with my imaginative (or not so imaginative) stories. Most of them were bloody awful, but I would like to think it's better than writing nothing at all.

EDIT: And hillwalker, no need to be so rude - if you don't think a thread is worthwhile then don't post.

This is borderline trolling, surely. Post any old nonsense just to keep ones name at the top of the thread page.

Perhaps we should rebrand this site as DumbNet.

Or depressed to discover that the pool of inanity has discovered the circular nature of things?

Now you are just mixing metaphors.

I think it's a good question!

You know children's drawings are really cool! They're full of imagination! Children's minds are so full of imagination! Children's drawings & paintings have been inspirational to many a great painter.

I was probably around nine when I wrote my first literature. It was very imaginative! I didn't write anything so imaginative again until my twenties.

Surely not this not a race. This is a genuine question. Unhappiness is a tag and you carry it rather stiff.

Dumbnet? not really. I think AngryNet would do better.

I think so too myself if I may say so :biggrin5:

I know I am so glad you think so too.

They're full of imagination!
I could not have said it b etter myself. I love children's drawings.

Children's minds are so full of imagination!

They are indeed free from constraint and very truthful. They tell you everything about them when they draw. Adults must learn to interpret it their children's drawings. In fact adults must learn to pay attention to how children's communicate especially through arts.

I am not surprised.

Nine is a good age. I just regret I did not keep anything I wrote.

Yes I do. Unless your memory is bad. Plus this is a very relevant question that holds a symbolic importance to any writer in fact to everyone.
What is the point? really? For someone who write I am surprised you do not see it but then again.

That sounds cool. Why President Nixon?

No matter when it was. The important thing is keep on retaining outward in words what is a mess in mind, obviously, doing it right. Be continuous in our writing work, day to day, persintently. That's the clue.
