Leo Boyle: Stories
When I was growing up I read lots of stories and books, often
some that were for a higher reading level than the one I was
supposed to have. I found it easy to tell stories to other
children and in late 1985 I got my opportunity to write my
first, proper story. It was about 2 or 3 pages long and I
had big writing, but it meant a great deal to me that I had
put on paper what my imagination already had. That first story
was followed by a series of 12 or more "sequels"
in a small series. Since late 1985, I've considered myself
as much an author as a vocalist and lyricist. By the mid-1990's,
writing stories got regularly postponed, but I haven't given
up and I hope to get some of my stories published some day...
