Hey, everybody! Here's some Writing For Ya!

Hey, everyone. It's Lizzie. I was just saying HI and sorry. Um, as you all may know, school has started so it is very chaotic in my house. I have 6/7 classes with Bella and all of my classes with Cookie! I am doing very well in school. My Language Arts class (my FAVORITE) is first hour, so I love my schedule! It feels good to start the day with writing!
It has also been very stormy. A tropical storm passed my area so I could not really write then. My mom said that it isn't safe to get on the computer during a storm. 
Here is some of the short story I was writing. About Analie. Do you remember?

The tapping on her shoulder resumed. What is that? she thought curiously and cautiously to herself. She was afraid her intruder could hear her thoughts.

Look at this ^ Notice that I used the words curiously and cautiously. This is called Alliteration. Many writers use it to add some pizazz in their own writing. 
She was afraid her intruder could hear her thoughts. Notice that I added a feeling. It is good to add the character's feelings so you feel as if you were with them.

I'll write more later. Or should I say, YOU"LL write more later. Send me 3-5 paragraphs to add on to this story with your parent's permission and I may publish it ONLINE! Hurry! Send it to l8tg8r@msn.com, OK? BYE!
