Young Authors

Today our teacher told us we had to do Young Authors in school(you have to write a story and draw illustrations and bind it somehow into a book), and of course, I rejoiced. For the past two years I have one my class competition and last year even won the school-wide one for my level, and my poems went on the regional one, where they lost. This year I am hoping to win class again, and everyone who sat by me when our teacher was explaining kept saying that I was going to win. I just shrugged and said I hope so. Anyhoo, how does this idea sound......a story about a land of reflections and a girl's desperate struggle to escape. It will become more elaborate and I might even add another girl, in our regular world, whose survival is based on that of the girl in the mirror(land of reflections). Maybe the normal girl sees this other one in the mirror, begging for help? I don't know. I'm planning to start the story with: In the west, the sun was rising.

I might even develop it into an actual full length novel later on, that was my actual plan but I like the idea for this short story.

Thanks for reading
