All my life, I've been a writer. I used to write 50-100 page stories (hand-written pages) when I was a young teenager. The last few years I've gotten interested again, and have read a ton of books on writing. I also took a Creative Writing and a Creative Nonfiction course. I've submitted a few short stories to magazines only to have them returned with a big stamp of disapproval on them. I have written a few articles for an online magazine and gotten $15 or $20 for them. But now it's time to step it up a little. I would like to write books, targeting approximately the 9-13 year old audience. I don't know why I'm posting this, except to ask for any tips or words of encouragement. Maybe seeing this in writing will get me ... well, writing.

Quilts, great topic. I loved the paper you wrote on our group. Have you submitted it to any magazines????? Oh and Christadelphia, another great topic.
I haven't found a magazine to submit it to. Do you know of any? I've looked, but haven't found any that take that kind of thing.
I'll bring some on Monday.
