I was eight years old when I watched Jurassic Park for the first time, and when I say "watched" I mean I stole peeks around the pillow I was hiding behind.
I absolutely loved it.
I loved it so much, in fact, I constantly asked my parents to play it for me. They refused most of the time, due to the fact it gave me nightmares, but after three years I was able to sit through the entire thing without hiding behind something or simply leaving the room.
My parents always thought my nightmares were troublesome, but I consider them one of my blessings. Without them, I may have never become a writer.
Let me explain.
