Writing your story ideas down cements them in your brain. You’ll be ab…[Read more]

I’m Grace, and as for how I’m doing… life is pretty busy, especially in the summer when I have a lot of volunteering/camps to be involved in. I thought I would have more time to write, but I’m afraid not.

What kind of things do you write?

Well, we should do something about that then.

After talking it over with some of the other SE staff. We have an idea. This isn’t a premade…[Read more]

You ready for it?

What do you think about this trend? While I was thinking about this I start…[Read more]
