It was a real joy to work with 11 kids on a short story writing workshop at the Kingston Library here in Canberra. The kids, aged between 7 and 12, created their own story from a selection special grid - where a main character, setting, object and situation are chosen for them.
Some kids ended up with a very strange combination - like a wounded shark on a space station or a chocolate frog in the desert (mmm... sounds delicious).
I'm constantly amazed at the creativity and cleverness of children. Thanks for inspiring me, kids! and thanks to the lovely Kerri Buckley for organising this special event.
