Some writers start writing after meeting other writers. Some writers start writing at a very early age and keep going. Some writers start writing when they get paid to write. Whenever you start writing - however you start writing - good for you!
The French Symbolists led by Baudelaire were a huge influence on English writers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
The Harlem Renaissance was a significant cultural movement in the early 20th century where African-American writers, artists, and musicians showcased their talents. They explored themes of identity, race, and discrimination through their work, contributing to a rich and diverse body of literature that celebrated African-American culture.
The Early Modern English period not only provided us with an astonishing amount of wonderful literature, not only from the big names of Spenser, Shakespeare and Milton, but also from numerous other lesser writers and the compilers of the King James Bible but also saw a huge increase in English vocabulary as a result of these writers, and a long-term influence on style, particularly by Shakespeare and the Bible.
Oscar Wilde was influenced by writers such as Walter Pater, John Ruskin, and William Morris in his early life. These writers shaped Wilde's views on art and aestheticism, which would become central themes in his own work. Wilde also admired the French Decadent writers, including Charles Baudelaire and Joris-Karl Huysmans, whose works further influenced his writing style.
The correct answer is A. English. Indentured servants in Jamestown during the early 1600s were primarily English, as they were brought over to work in exchange for passage to the New World. While African individuals were later brought to Jamestown, the initial wave of indentured servants consisted mostly of English settlers seeking economic opportunities.

Puritan writers in early America typically used allegory and symbolism in their works to convey moral and religious messages. They also frequently employed a plain and direct style of writing to emphasize the importance of clarity and simplicity in conveying their beliefs.
In England, they spoke English. Not Old English, not Middle English, but Modern English. There were a number of dialects of Modern English spoken which are lumped together as Early Modern (or Elizabethan) English. It is the same language I am writing in now with a few quirks.
Paul Laurence Dunbar was a prominent African American poet, novelist, and playwright, known for his use of dialect and exploration of African American life in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was one of the first influential Black poets in American literature, celebrated for works such as "We Wear the Mask" and "Sympathy," the latter famously inspiring Maya Angelou's "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings." His writing often addressed themes of race, identity, and resilience, bridging cultural divides through both standard and dialectical English. Dunbar's contributions laid the groundwork for future generations of African American writers.
