Can't I write and draw pictures for my ideas?
To imagine the kind of ideas Patrick Carman journaled to write his book, read this synopsis: http://www.kidsreads.com/reviews/0439700930.asp
What a great idea!
So how about it? If you have an idea, grab some paper or notebook and start drawing and doodling characters, places, and events. Write descriptions of characters and places. Explain relationships among characters and places (a web?). Start lists of plots. What else could you include? action scenes? conversations? What seems like the seed of a story from your writing and drawing?
Share what you've done on the this page. If you'd like , we can photo a page of your journal and audio record a) how you thought through your ideas and b) how that started a draft or published story so that others can learn from your journey.
