Squidges Guide to Super Stories

 Everyone is a storyteller. Really. They are.

 
 

It’s easy to tell a story. But it’s not always easy to write one. This book helps young writers capture their story ideas, fill them out with detail, and polish them up to be the best they can be. The informal style, whimsical illustrations, and amusing examples makes writing fun. Katherine’s emphasis on capturing story first and thinking about the rules after gives young writers permission to free their imaginations.

Katherine Hetzel has spent years sharing information and advice with young and novice writers. Squidge’s Guide to Super Stories has everything a young writer needs to write stories they are proud of and for readers to enjoy.

 

I’d toyed with the idea of publishing a creative writing book for younger and novice writers for a while, but it wasn’t until during the lockdowns of the covid pandemic that I set about putting it together - mainly because my imaginative brain froze, but I could deal with facts.

I wanted it to be fun to read, and to focus on folks having fun while writing, so I also drew my own simple illustrations.
