My Writing Over The Years

A lot of you might not know this, but I was already typing when I was 3-years-old. Obviously they weren't actual stories, they were just short lists of things. Then when I was in Kindergarten, we had a writing class. At the time, I was obsessed with Neopets and most of my journals were short one-sentence journals like "Neopets are good" or something like that. The teacher then told me to write actual stories and I would write all kinds of things about guess what:Neopets. It even got to the point where the teacher had to make me stop writing about Neopets because it was too obsessive. In 1st Grade, I wrote about a lot of real experiences from hanging out with my friends to our cat having kittens, I wrote about almost everything. Then when I was 2nd Grade, I made a series of short stories called "The Superdogs. One of my friends had these stuffed dogs she would play with and in my stories I would turn them into superheroes who fight mythical creatures. They had a lot of toilet humor in them because I was 8-years-old at the time and that is the kind of humor 8-year-old boys like. Two years later, when I was in 4th Grade, the teacher asked us to write an autobiography chronicling our whole life from birth to 4th Grade. Most of the kids were like "Awh, do I have to?" but I was really excited. After I wrote it, the teacher published it and gave a copy to Mom and Dad. It wasn't until last Summer, that I realized I wanted to be a writer when I grow up. The first story I wrote was an unusual concept where a dragon saves a princess from a knight. It had plenty of obscure references to things I like from Family Guy to Bob's Burgers in it. Then I wrote a story where an alien meets a kid and teaches him about alien life. It was called Fred Instead and you could tell at this point, I was maturing with my humor. After that, I wrote one about a bird that was afraid of heights. The bird's name was Bob and him and his squirrel friend, Sam went to Florida to meet his Grandma Bird. At first, it sounds kind of like a ripoff of the movie Rio, but this one is more original than anything. Next, I wrote a story where I was the last man on Earth (almost like the new sitcom on Fox), it was where me and my dog had to survive in the city with no other people around, until a girl came a long. Last but not least, I did a story called The Knuckleheads where a kid from the Cincinnati moves to the country to go to a school for kids with ADHD. At the school he meets plenty of people from a hippie named Brody to the school bully, Richie Cinnamon. The story was kind of inspired by Diary of a Wimpy Kid, except it was set in the 80s. I have dreams of being a writer that I will hopefully some day accomplish. Maybe not a famous writer like Dr. Seuss, Stephen King, or Brian Griffin (just kidding!) but one who writes stories that people enjoy.
