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. (more) 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.

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.

Take your books to Art/Craft shows. Do programs at libraries and bookstores. Gather a list of email addresses of people interested in your books so you can tell them about the next book out.
