I am an author of books for kids 8 to 12. Here's a story of the coolest thing ever. My books were all set out on a table in a school hallway. I sat behind the table. A young guy walked past, stopped, backed up, and pointed at a book and then another. "I've read that book and that book. I didn't know you had others."
I write for kids 8 to 12 years old that don't necessarily like to read, so my word count is kept low usually between 750 and 1500 words per short story. Have fun with your words! Writing is wonderful.

Some start with an idea and write. I like to know my direction so I start with 9 to 15 sentences to keep me on track. The first sentence is the beginning. I usually have an idea of an ending, but that could change, so I do a sentence for the end. Then go back to the first sentence and write your second sentence. You see the pattern.
These are just ideas and will probably change as you go. It does give you direction. Best wishes.
