I used to write stories at that age too. I still have them (and I'm 52) although I haven't read them in a long time. I remember them though. My characters were always people that I wished I was at the time - smarter than me, prettier than me, happier than me, and they always had happy non-dysfunctional families. I see now that they were my way of escaping and making my world "normal" for awhile.
