Lee Hickman: A Writer
11-year-old Writer, A Future Famous Writer
I'm a Writer Who...
I'm a Writer who likes writing very much. I think I am a very confident writer. My strength of writing is having a subject to write about and writing a pretty good story instead of having to come up with a subject. My weakness of writing is actually getting inspiration from something. I am better if a teacher gives me a subject. Usually I like to keep my stories to myself but if I think my story is really good I may share it.
Inspiration
I usually draw inspiration from where I am. If I am in school, I may write stuff about school like about teachers or about students.
Genre
The genre I usually do is either realistic fiction or fiction. I like writing things that I can make up or things that can be cool to happen to a person.
Process
When I am doing a rough draft, I get my brainstormed ideas and sometimes put them together or I might just get one subject and talk about that. When I am editing and revising I try to find every single mistake once I do that, I get a teacher or another one of my peers to go over it and see if they can edit or revise my story.
A Memorable Experience
I was writing a story about my summer. I was very nervous to share the story and to go up in front of the whole class. Then the teacher said we are going to have a publishing party. Then I really had butterflies. I was telling my story and then when I finished, I realized it wasn't that bad to share. I took from that experience and why that experience was memorable to me is because I don't care if I share my stories anymore.
