Washington Irving was only seven years old when our nation received its independence. Born on April 3, 1783, he became an exceptional writer.
To this day, I remember the first time I read The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. Afterward, my teacher let us watch the movie, which was just as creepy as the text. I still have a vision of Ichabod Crane being chased by the headless horseman.
I like to believe at a young age I had a good taste in literature, even if all of my favorites were a bit on the spooky side.
Who is your favorite short story writer?
