Dear writers,
For this blog I want to step away from writing about reading, and I want you to simply write. Choose a small moment from your summer and tell the story. Think about what good stories include. Maybe they have a particular focus, theme, or lesson? Descriptive setting and language? Dialogue? Action? Internal thinking?
I am traveling to Portland, Oregon on Friday with one of my brothers, and I hope to have a few stories to tell when I return. When I decide what story to write, I will think about WHY it matters to me. I always do best when I care deeply, but sometimes I have to search a bit to get there. I cannot wait for the adventures and letting the stories come to me!
For this particular blog post, you may want to go through the writing process and take your time!
Plan
Draft
Revise
Edit
Then post and publish!
I hope everyone is having a summer full of wonderful stories to tell! I cannot wait to read about what matters to you.
Ms. Sikes
