Kids Are Brilliant!

Posted by sjm@starshipsandaliens.com on October 1, 2011 at 7:25 AM

I had the privilege of working with a new club at my school this week - fifteen aspiring young writers aiming to publish a book of their stories this year.  It was just such a joy to see them beavering away at the computers, and I can't wait to see what they produce.

I'm also lucky enough to be working with my cousin Maddie as she publishes her first story, "The Bear and the Bee".   It's a sweet, touching story-poem about a lonely bee and a misunderstood bear, and should be on Smashwords very soon.

If there is anything more fun and more satisfying than publishing your own work, it has to be helping brilliant kids achieve something amazing!  :D

Guess what - a boy at the library doesn't believe me about the club and also i have shown him proof (plenty of it aswell) and he still refuses to believe me.

lol! Perhaps if Writers' Club come up with really great stories and we publish them, we might ask the library to have a copy. :)
