It's All Downhill from Here (13 page)

What's better than reading a really spooky story?

Writing your own!

You just read a great book. It gave you ideas, didn't it? Ideas for your next story: characters…plot…setting… You can't wait to grab a notebook and a pen and start writing it all down.

It happens a lot.
Ideas just pop into your head.
In between classes entire story lines take shape in your imagination. And when you start writing, the words flow, and you end up with notebooks crammed with your creativity.

It's okay, you aren't alone.
