Probably those who wrote first hand accounts in diaries and military reports.
There's a good novel on WWI by Erich Maria Remarque called "All Quiet on the Western Front." It's an excellent book. Go buy it or check it out at your local library.

Strictly speaking, no one wrote about World War 1 until World War 2 -- until then it was called the Great War.
I imagine that the soldiers in the trenches were the first to write about the war in their letters.

Technically that title would befall those who drafted the Declaration of War in terms of referring to the First World War. Even then there would have been a great deal of media speculation prior to the outbreak of first World War in the Tabloids.

Um......it depends what you mean. From day one war correspondents of all nations were writing from the front. Owen, Sassoon and Munro were writing in the trenches, and after the fact a plethora of memoirs appeared.
I don't think one singular person can be credited as being the first, given the amount of people directly and indirectly involved.

Probably some of the soldiers and their families.
