I wrote my first serious story at some point in middle school(probably 8th grade) but I tried to write before that. I gave up on most of my writing because I'm a perfectionist and thought that my stories sounded too boring and simple but I'm trying to fix that.
Hmm. I remember writing little stories all the time in elementary school. I wrote a few poems in 3rd grade. And, as always, essays for school. But last November is when I decided to start writing a novel.
The first story I remember writing was when I was eight or something and got into the whole supernatural/fantasy stuff. It was about a unicorn and a troll and ... yeah. I threw it away, I think xD
I seriously started writing when I was 13. I haven't posted it yet or finished it, because I sucked at writing at that age and am currently rewriting it.

hmm, my first story I can remember was back in Kindergarten, it was called "I Want To Go To" and it was all about the places I wanted to go. I probably wrote a lot in between then, but the next story I can remember is "Grandma's House" which is a action packed based-off-a-true-story story that I wrote about something that happened at my Grandma's house. I wrote "Grandma's House" in 2nd grade, and after writing that story, I seriously considered being a writer. I started writing a novel at 11, and it was about this girl and her friend, and these other four boys who joined the army when the evil "Ogdens" where taking over. It involved like three love triangles, and one love square, I got half-way done and I quit, because It sucked. Now I'm 13 and I'm working on another novel (a 4-part series) and I have 27 more novels already planned and ready to go!
My first story was surprisingly good, considering I made it in first grade. It's actually what inspired me to become a writer, so I really should dig it up somewhere...
It's not the story I can really remember clearly, but the experience writing it. Even though I was young, it was simply thrilling for me to pick up a pencil and start scribbling away. It ended up being 12 pages long, in cursive, on loose leaf. No joke. I can't believe it, now that I look back on it, but I was really young. What amazed me was the writing itself and how I got so caught up in it. I actually remember having to cut the story short, even though I remember there was a lot more to the plot. The feeling that it was complete was also satisfactory, but nothing could compare to the look on my first grade teacher's face when I handed it in. Priceless.

You judge others upon their actions, but you judge yourself by your intention.
Hey, I have no idea when I started writing, I think I've always like to write. However, the earliest story I can remember is a sequel I wrote to the storybook: Lola and the farm. I illustrated it and my dad stapled it together so it looked like a small book. I was so proud of it. xxmimixx

Forget the prince with a horse, I want a vampire with a volvo.
Other than little stories when I was 4 - 6, those little one page things, I started writing when I was around 8. I had a story due for school and my teacher gave it an A+++. I also got a "first place" award in my district's writing competition.
I liked getting my little ego fed,so I wrote more And now it's one of the most serious things in my life.
'Cause it's the one's with the sorest throats, Laura, who have done the most singing.
I started reading when I was 3, and writing stories when I was four. My first story is about a giraffe who comes to tea... I think. I still have it in my closet all typed up on the ancient computers we had back then haha!
It was going to be a looooooooooooong story (probably a novella, or even a novel) about this guy who could save the heavens. Half-demon, half-god, so all of the gods hated him which kind of screwed it up because he was supposed to save heaven.
I was well-into the story but then one day I forgot the password (I locked the document). And so bye-bye story. Sniff
After that I didn't write for a while. Instead, I made up stories and used toys to act them out, so to everyone else in the house, I was weird cause I locked myself in a room and talked to myself. Add to that my crazy pale skin and my lack of enthusiasm for sunlight and vegetables...Haha. Just kidding. I don't think any of them thought I was a vampire...At least, I hope not.
I began to write again when I was twelve because a friend of mine was writing. I have this tendency to get overcompetitive with people, so I began to write (the only things I don't compete in are sports and arts because I am horrible in both. Singing too - well, I don't compete in the things I've tried and failed in). So you name it, I try to outdo people in it (unless I won't win. I know where to draw the line).
I don't think I ever titled my first half-finished work. The second one had a title, and I still have it. It's written in a notebook and it features a crazy non-human homicidal character. He's probably Maximilian's predecessor. The title of the second one is far too embarrassing to divulge, though so...
Why do I keep having this scary nightmare...The one where I went mad and killed you with my own hands.
Lol I have been writing since I was five in Kindergarten. My first book was: Magic Tree House Book number 22: the sea. Its pitiful if you look at it! There was a whole ton of plagiarism in there too! But I was five.
Oh yes! And when I was seven I wrote a story called super life changes, about a brutish girl who likes to swing on her yellow rope. I clearly didn't do my research, for the story takes place in 1918. They go to the airport to go catch a jet to America. The girl has to sit next to a weird girl wearing a BOBBY JACK T shirt who keeps on spraying her hair with hair spray and keeps on chewing gum. When they arrive in America, the immediatley send the girl to school. But, she doesn't know what a school is. When they are in a line going to walk somewhere, she just stops, because she doesn't know what a line is. When they get to lunch, she doesn't know what a lunch is, and the lunch lady laughs at her. FOR GOODNESS SAKES age is from BRITAIN not MARS!
I started writing in the 6th grade but I've always been a day dreamer. My day dreams are like mini-stories in my head for whenever I'm bored {never written down of course! XD} so in that sense kindergarden. But offically putting it down on paper? 6th grade. If I remember correctly {I lost it to a flood so I can't really be exact} it was about these 4 teens who were trying their best to surrive middle/high school while struggling with their inner conflicts as assassins for the govt. Naturally it was kinda burn and crash, espically the killing/gore scenes. Then I stopped writing for a while, started again in 10th, stopped again {lol life is a female doggy isn't she XD?} and started again recently. Naturally my writing is 100x better than when I started out.

I've been writing since I learned how to write. I can remember writing a series of books called "Silly Lion" throughout Kindergarten and First Grade. I wrote and illustrated them myself. Then I wrote one about a venus fly trap that ate people in between Silly Lion books, and fanfiction for the B movie The Blob. I wasn't really serious about actually giving my writing a plot until 2nd grade, when I wrote a short "chapter book" about faeries. My teacher loved it and made me read it to the class.
I think I wrote my first independent story (outside school) when I was about six. It was about a girl who found a baby mermaid and raised it by herself. I laugh so much when reading it. I used to think it was such a long story, although when I look back on it now its only a page and a half.lol
Everything has been figured out, except how to live.
