I apologise in advance for writing egocentrically. It is not my usual mode. But I was a juvenile writer, and I am a published author; and since my scholarship is often about childhood writings, I have paid attention to the connections between the juvenilia and the mature writings of the same author. Only recently, I turned my attention to those connections in my own case. And I was somewhat surprised by what I discovered. At least my self-examination will have the merit of coming from the horse’s mouth. To what extent my findings may apply to other authors, I am still investigating.
