I started writing at a young age. In the third grade we had an assignment to write where we would be in 2010 and I said I would be in Hollywood making movies. My dream was to always write and direct my own films. In the sixth grade I wrote my first feature-length script called "Terror in Gloucester." It was basically a rip off of "Scream" but my friends and I loved to be able to make a movie when we were about twelve so it was fun.
When I got in high school I started to write poetry and such. Putting my feelings and mindset on paper in poem for helped me. For awhile I just wrote poetry and some short stories. Then in about ninth grade I was on the bowling team and a fellow student named Steve told me he was a guitarist in a metal band and I told him I'd like to be their singer. Starting then on out I was a singer/songwriter and to this day I have been writing my own lyrics for our band.
Then in eleventh grade I wrote another feature-length script entitled "Payback's a Bitch." I showed it to a bunch of people and they all enjoyed it. I was going to make it as soon as I had the time but then some how I misplaced it and without saving it or making another copy it was lost forever. My senior year is when I made a bunch of different short films and such. Some I wrote and others were improvised. The last short film I wrote was the one I posted on here that you all read called "Missing Persons." That was a fun one to write and I plan on finishing the other four stories in the anthology.
Since then I haven't really written any movies or such just some poetry here and there and the lyrics to my bands music. I haven't really been in the mood to write. Nor have I had any good ideas for anything big. I hope to start writing again because I really want to be a filmmaker but it just seems like something that is too far away at the moment.
