He started to write, (scribble), before even learning how to read. Teachers at school in his younger years used to say that he would never be able to read well. What a pleasant surprise. By the time he was eleven, he was putting together fictional stories and when he was fifteen he wrote a book that turned out to be 117 pages. That work has not yet been published.
Also, at the age of eleven, Mason became a deer hunter. He took some criticism that he would never shoot a deer, (mostly from children at school). At the age of fifteen, a month after completing his 117 page book, he shot a 118 pound deer.
Before completing his schooling, Mason became involved in the FFA. He went as far as becoming Vermont state FFA secretary for two years and achieving his American degree, which is the highest honor you can receive in the National FFA Organization.
Mason now still lives in Albany. Aside from that, he tries to get a little logging done and help out farmers and landowners who need tasks completed on their land. He also takes college courses and tries to do some writing on the side. Below, Tyler Mason is pictured at the age of seventeen, when he began writing Deep Within.view less
