@152Createz asked:

What is the first story you remember ever writing? Would you consider revisiting its concept?

Also good luck with the fish sitsh.

As of this writing, Darks souls text: fish unsmelled, so we're good there. Obviously this post took me a while to finish, lol

The short answer goes like this. The first story I remember writing is a stort about a girl getting lost in the woods while hiking, then meeting a wolf who guides her out and becomes her pet. It's a fun little story, but there's not much there worth revisiting, and I'm satisfied to let it lie.

But here's the thing.

I assumed that story was lost. I wrote it for a grade school assignment 18 years ago, and that no copy of it anywhere remained.

I was so very wrong.

This ask took me for a fucking ride. Strap in, gang.

If there's enough interest in it, and/or the urge strikes me when I have free time, I might do a deep read of the story in here called "No Quarter" and talk about what I do and don't like about it, how I would improve it, etc.

I think it would be a fun exercise!

This is amazing! I’m glad you discovered so much while figuring out your answer.

I definitely have had similar realizations in the past few years. Stuff like me telling others at like, 9 years old, that I didn’t care if they thought of me as a boy or girl or asking people to call me Bob and Penelope. Little kid us had so much figured out that we just didn’t have the words for before.

Thanks for sharing all that history!
