Hi there =)
I'm Amy, fifteen and I live in a large place called Kazakhstan (you may know it as... Borat?). I'm originally British but moved there with my family =)
So I am completely new to YWS! I'm a super keen writer and really want to improve, so my soft heart is morphing into cold stone ready for some really hurtful comments!
I joined this site in order to help me on my Personal Project, something you do in Grade 9 and 10 when you follow the IB MYP program.
My PP is a challenge for me, but I believe with some help of you amazing editors I might be able to do it. I need to write 12 short stories. Sound simple? Well each story is set in a different month, for example Story Number 6 is going to be set in June and so forth. I have until January to complete the challenge, along with a Personal Statement, which is confidential, at 4,000 words.
Still sound easy enough?
I'm also publishing all these stories onto a website.
Okay, so time is shortened, but it still sounds easy, right?
Well now look at the idea realistically. 12 short stories. That's 12 mindmaps. Say 20 Character Profiles. 12 lots of first drafts, second drafts and final drafts. Notes to read, reread, reference, and a blog to constantly update.
So it sounds a little tricky, but not impossible!
I also start school in September!!!
Maybe from an outsiders view it sounds a little easier, but really, untie your shoe laces, borrow a pair of my sandals and try walking in them for a day and you'll notice how many thoughts are racing through my mind presently.
So what am I asking from you guys?
Really, it's like starting a new school, I'd love to see a friendly face show me the ropes around this place.
Soo please someone answer my desperate cry of help!!
