    Hi Nasra, It’s really hard for anyone to have to make a change, but it’s always good for us to do it in the end. It will make you stronger. My advice is to take each day as it comes and to smile. Good luck!

    IVE FINALLY FINISHED!
    I hope you like it Harriet!

    I jumped from the flaming platform screaming! First before I tell you why you need to know what happened I need to start from the beginning. My name is Scarlett smallwood I’m 15 years old it was my birthday tomorrow.
    (I was turning 16.) My mum needed me to go to Lichfield to get her some car parts.

    I was on my way to to Lichfield to get the car parts.I needed to get them because our car broke down so we had to push our car back into the street.I met up with my best friend Amy we had known each other for many yrs.

    Chapter 2: The unexpected twist

    Me and Amy were paying at the counter at the car parts shop.All of a sudden everywhere fell silent.All I could hear was a loud heart beat getting louder and louder.A man appeared out of the blue with a deep voice he said
    “Show me your scar!”I didn’t have any scars though.

    Amy helt a firm grip on my arm in fear.
    We were terrified.I counted to 3 in my head slowly I whispered three in Amy’s ear. We ran.I had no time to grab the change from the car parts I was that terrified.

    Chapter 3: The chase

    We ran a mile. We were terrified.
    I got home dropped the car parts onto the table and headed upstairs.Amy desided to go home.I went to the bathroom and splashed my face with cold
    water and hoped I was dreaming. I was not.

    I looked in the mirror. A glow came from my arm. I looked for a split second then the glow vanished. All that remained was a red mark in a shape as the number 1. But what did it mean?

    Chapter 4: The mystery (amys point of view)

    As soon as I looked up , I saw something on my face. It was a scar…
    Gleaming red like the sun. Then I realised it was a scar. The scar covered my left cheek,my flesh attempted to cover it but did not succeed

    (Scarletts side)
    Chapter 5 : The dark birthday surprise

    The sun beated through my sun kissed curtains. It awoke me. I was still shucken up about what happened
    yesterday. Amy entered my room. Her bulging eyes were bigger than Jupiters rings.

    I leaped out of bed and shoved on my clothes. I turned around , Amy had disappeared. I rushed out of the front door and ran to school like a cheetah.

    Chapter 6: School
    Amys side

    I got into into the school gates and I saw scarlett waiting for me with a big smile on her face it was her birthday. I passed her my present and she ripped it to pieces and the paper fell like a feather .

    she was too happy though but why after what happened yesterday .suddenly the school bell rang we had to get to class and fast.i felt uncomfortable walking into class.the teacher was glaring into my eyes and here teeth were pointing out like a vampire

    Chapter 7: P.E
    Scarletts side

    My life was falling apart over 1 incident. Rumours spread. Fast.
    Amy approached me with guilt in her eyes. We walked over to Philip Edwards but we call him P.E. His jaw dropped at the sight of us.

    He looked at us in despise. His face went as pale as snow.

    Hi Scarlett, Well done to do all that writing. It’s exciting! Practise “showing not telling”. So, instead of writing “we were terrified”, think about what happens to your body when you are terrified (sweaty palms/ racing heart etc) and what you THINK when you’re scared – and then write that instead. Good luck and keep writing!

    Hello Harriet.

    I’m doing my A levels and I wanted to start writing. I don’t know what makes a good introduction, or how to make it entertaining all the way through.
    Can I please have some tips?

    I want to write an apocalyptic story but I can put my ideas into gear and actually write.

    Help!

    Hi Sam, Best advice for opening a story is to use a strong voice, present your reader with an extraordinary situation or an exciting action sequence, and get your reader asking lots of questions. Hope this helps – and good luck!!
