Back to School!

Good luck to all of you heading back to school this week. I hope you have a fun, fabulous, and fantastic year!  

With sports, homework, and friends, it can be hard to find time to write during the school year. If you want to keep up your personal creative writing, try writing for 15 minutes a day. I wrote about that here

What to write about when you start school? Try these ideas for a 15-Minute Story: 


  • The Cafeteria Lady Who Was an Alien
  • The Teacher Who Vanished
  • The Principal Who Turned into a Woolly Mammoth
  • The Librarian Who Got Swallowed Up by a Book

Remember, 15 minutes a day. That's less time than it takes to watch a TV show, walk the dog, or find your homework in your backpack.

Happy school year and happy writing!
