Finally, a story.
And I actually think this one will work.
So, here goes.
You know, it’s not exactly easy to create a great piece of writing at age 13 unless you have some God-given talent. I heard there was once a girl who wrote a bestseller at age 11, and automatically I thought, “Beginner’s luck.” The girl claimed she received the idea in a dream and that she had no idea she could write. She just wrote. Come on, writing can’t be that simple, can it? Or is there something wrong with me?
This individual titled her book, “Songbird”. My story is definitely not about songs or birds or both mixed together. My story is about my life. Except, it’s not an autobiography. My story is about challenges everyone faces, because trust me, my life is not a whimsical fantasy. This is real life.
Like I already said, I’m 13 years old. Apparently I haven’t experienced life, for I’ve only been on this earth for thirteen short years. Maybe I’m a little naïve, still learning the flips and tricks to growing up. Maybe I still have two and a half more years before I get my driver’s license. Maybe I attend middle school where the guys are half my size and girls start wearing pounds of makeup. But you do not have permission to tell me I don’t know what life—or love—is. There is such a thing as young but wise.
I live in Idaho. And yes, it is the home of the potato. But just in case you’re wondering, I do not live in a potato farm. I live in an everyday neighborhood with a fire station, trees, schools, grass, and sidewalks. It’s almost uneventful living in such a normal place. However, my house is not at all ordinary. I have a unique family, as well as a Labrador retriever named Cooper.
I hope you like it! I really see a future in this!
