We’ve been walking you through the start of a story. Some of you are here to start your very first story and some of you could be halfway through your fourth novel.
You don’t have to share much — a snippet of dialogue or a piece of prose that you’re proud of or struggling with. I’m sharing a snippet from my young adult work in progress Violet. It wasn’t a planned scene, it was just something I wanted to have fun with — and I ended up word-vomiting 1500 words (which is an insane number in my mind)
We’d love to meet our writers out there and see what you’ve all been working on!

She lives for all things magical and if fairy wings don't sprout from her back, or if fire doesn't spark from her palms, one day, she'll head down the path of a villain.
