Cameron's Post on Writing

I like writing because it entertains me. It is really easy because all you do is write words that make sense.

I like choosing my own topic because Miss Neville gives me fiction stories but I like non-fiction.

I am writing about a lot of different topics. I use crayons and pencils.

I like writing because it helps me to be a better writer. What I don’t like about writing is that if you write too long your hand starts hurting. Miss Neville, I have a question for you. Why do writers write books? You can help me with outlines in my stories.

I'm writing about my stuffed teddy bear, Teddy, and his friend, Puppy.

Let's Write!

I am so excited about Miss Neville's post! She asks some great questions and I am so looking forward to your answers! I thought you might enjoy a picture one of my fifth grade blogging students drew about writing. That will really put you in the right frame of mind to "blog about writing."

I also thought I'd share a couple of my favorite quotes about writing.

• Writing is like baseball or piano playing. You have to practice if you want to be successful. Betsy Byars
• It is wise to write on many subjects, to try many topics so that you may find the right and inspiring one.  Henry David Thoreau
• For the writer, there is nothing quite like having someone say that he or she understands, that you have reached them and affected them with what you have written.  Virginia Hamilton
