Drop Everything and Write! An Easy Breezy Guide for Kids Who Want to Write a Story<\/em> is an AWARD WINNER, Best Books of 2010, sponsored by USA Book News.<\/p>\n

Whether or not you like to write, you’ll breeze through this easy guide to writing stories. You’ll find that writing is something that everyone (even you! especially you!) can do. First you’ll write only what you want to write, in any form that feels best to you. No grammar rules, no spelling worries. No pressure. No one looking over your shoulder. Then maybe you’ll observe (or imagine!) a person who’s really interesting and think about putting that person in a story. This guide will help you:<\/p>\n

— plot the story, start it, shape it, end it.
\n— put your character in conflict with another character.
\n— create a world for your character to operate in.
\n— give your character needs and wants, speech and thoughts.
\n— bring your character alive by using tricks of the writing trade.
\n— polish your story so you’re as proud as can be of what you’ve created.
\n— practice all this with fun and creative exercises.<\/p>\n

Willing to try? Just open this guide. It’s time now to… Drop everything and write!<\/p>\n
