#WordWeavers 29Jan- Did you write stories when you were a kid?
No. I almost always had stories in my head, but they mostly stayed safe in there until I had my own space, an electric typewriter, and contact with other writers.
In my earliest memory of trying to write, at about age 6, I remember carefully asking some grownup relatives how to spell 'would' as in 'I would like'. They told me 'wood' and then made fun of me when I showed them the story because I had used the wrong word. 63 years ago
