The first time I wrote fiction, I was in second grade.
It was an assignment for class. A creative writing mission. I don’t remember the rubric or the exact goal, we were probably being graded on story structure or syntax or spelling or whatever it is that second graders learn.

Picture this. You’re sitting in a movie theater. Hand deep and buttery in a bucket of popcorn. Soda fizzling in your mouth. The orchestra swells as you watch a young boy learn how to ride a dragon. And it’s… 2025?
Deja Vu, right? Because what you’re watching (or probably watching) is a scene for scene remake of a movie you’ve seen before; How to Train Your Dragon, which will have a live-action remake premiering in June 2025.
