The Early Writing Tag

(The First Draft post should have been published on Monday, and this one today.  But life happened, and now you have two posts today!!)

Ivie over at Ivie Writes tagged me (thanks girl!).  As I told her, this is what I get for having "wish I could take part in these tag things too!" thoughts.  Guess this is the blogging world.

So for the Early Writing Tag, I only have to answer two questions this time.  (Not bad.)

What horrendous books did you write as a child?

My main horrendous book that comes to mind is one of the first things I wrote when I first got my laptop.  The title was Adventures on the Daventry Farm and it basically is about my family holding a summer camp (what???  why???) at our farm, and this cliché, stuck-up, whiny city slicker girl came with her cousin.  And I basically was super-cool and awesome and they just quaked in fear of my epicness.  My sister was run-of-the-mill boring, and all the horses could talk.  *blushes*

What did you learn from them?

It annoys my dear sister when I write books like that.

My family is never going to have a summer camp.

I am not always-calm nor secretive nor do I drive a landspeeder from Star Wars.

Horses do not talk.

Nor do they really care about making me look cool, either.

BUT I also learned:

Typing stories is actually fun.

Why don't I keep writing?

Except I should not put me in the story.

Because I am not cool.

What's cool?

Fantasy!

(And so I moved on to write fantasy, and have never looked back.)

The Re-Tag

I'm supposed to tag five people (oy!) so I'll give it a try...

Sarah, at Pen of a Ready Writer (my tag fallback)

Melissa over at Quill Pen Writer (if she wants to do this; I dunno)

Andrea (hopefully she won't mind me tagging her) at a Surge of Thunder

and.....

The first two person to comment who are not on this list!  (cackles)
