Branden likes to read and write

Branden is six years old, and he loves to read. He also loves to write.

That is the way it is with writers, I think. A writer realizes that writing is what he or she likes to do at an early age, and enjoys reading at an early age as well. Writers don't write because they want to. They write because they have to. Something inside the writer says, "Write something." It doesn't matter what it is, as long as they are writing.

Style and the likes and dislikes of the craft form later, and even change as the writer becomes older.

So, Branden, if you get the chance to read this, all Uncle Doug has to say is "Keep writing, and keep reading. It will make you smarter.

Good for you.

It hasn't made me smarter. I'm so joking. :) It's wonderful that your nephew has started writing at such a young age.
