wow i'm speachless your AMAZING! I have wanted to be a singer for as long as I could remember. A few months ago I nearly got ran over by a car. I know it's prety silly, but I got inspired to write a short story from that experince. I had no writting experince what so ever, but I didnt care. I only wanted to write something 1 page long, but it ended up being 3. I showed it to my dad, and he said I was really good for a inexperinced 12 year old. I now am going to be writing a novel. :D

One of the most inspiring videos on writing I've ever viewed. Lucy is speaking to young students, but what she shares is what adult writers need to hear. Some of the students' writing brought tears to my eyes, especially Marasal's piece. "Read your writing like it's gold."

This video was so inspiring, it left me speechless. I can barely say a word, I'm suprised anything's coming out right now. Thank you for posting this video, and giving these helpful hints to people like us, like me, who need them.
