Guess My Age
I really want to see what my writing conveys and how you see my mental age, and why you think that. I feel like it would be a great experiance to learn about myself (Ouch, that sounds so selfish). It might be a decent mental exersize for y'all who are stuck at home doing nothing. Tag me please! I will pick the winner based on the person who has the best reasoning and ideas.

You Are...

I think that you may be in the 1-100000000 range, though I might be wrong.

As far as actual guesses go, I'd say 14

...

For starters, I can definitely say you are in The 12-17 range.

Your writing, although often misspelled, is mature and well thought out.

However, your interactions with others shows a younger, not yet adult personality.

I believe you to be aged either 12 or 15.

15

I guess your 15. I haven't read all your work but just a guess. In return you might guess my age.

You seem to be a teenager, anything from 14-17

You write with your heart on your sleeve, not yet crushed by the cynicism of Augustan expectations. Obviously a very smart 14-17 year old.

Ultimately refreshing and bodes well for your writing yet to come.

Nice Challenge idea.

You’re in the Boomer Space

[Am I stepping on your toes?]

My instinct says you're 15 or 16.

A brief survey of your most recent posts tells me a few things:

- Not only do you enjoy words and wordplay, but playing with the words themselves and dismantling them, rearranging their own letters.

- Similar to deliberate misspelling, you seem drawn to obscure or exotic, original names.

- You're familiar with Twitter. Brief posts with so much to say sometimes.

- You're very in tune with the Internet and know this is a wonderful way to increase the traffic on your profile. Nice marketing.

Maybe it's because I exhibited these same patterns not too long ago and I'm calling myself out, or maybe I associate these characteristics with fresh, young, contemporary writing- but it makes me think you're the writer friend who's too cynical to pursue authorship head-on, but confident enough to know there's lots of room for other kinds of greatness in it and from it.

But that's not what you're asking for. You're not asking about your real age, and I'm not sure you'd reveal it either. I have a feeling you like reveal as little as possible to deter prejudice against your skills. Don't know why, just feels like it.

You have Boomer energy.

Capacity for floral and fluffy language, but with range: sophisticated and tasteful to tacky and cloying. Like the difference between conversations on the coast and conversations in the South, or between "seize the day" and "live, laugh, love". There's purpose for both, and control.

A diligent use of dialogue and speech. Showing that not only is what you're saying about the character important, but even the character has some shit to say. Dialogue within dialogue, a little slice of Inception. Talking is a strong point, if not for you then your characters.

A fan, a club member, identities in many communities. I'm not just saying fandoms and fanfiction, but distinct echos of your real experiences and beliefs. When we rewrite someone or develop them in a new way, we add something we think they might lack, or create interest by changing a detail and seeing what happens. Seeing which branch of the tree the mouse happens to run along this time.

And the writing is centered. It has some fluid central purpose, and guess what's in the midst. Curious and secure to sit in the hot seat and bask under the heat lamp, but generous enough to invite the rest of us for the party. What's a show without an audience after all?

Fun and games and jabs aside, I'm just speculating after all. The merit, the skill, the effect- wonderful and worth the time and thought. The substance is undeniably present, but who am I to say how refined it is?

You've got Boomer energy, and not as an insult. But for presentation,

You're a millennial. 26, take it or leave it.
