Last week an author named John Marsden came to our school and told us about writing. He told us how many types of books he has written and he also told us how to write stories. He told us about his experience in writing and what had influenced him to write stories. He told us how to write ghost stories and after that he gave us a chalenge to write a story in which words were no longer that 4 words. This is how my story goes ---->
I was sad as my dog, Jack, had left me alone. At the same time I was also mad at the man who had crushed Jack with his big new car. But now I am not so sad as my mum told me that they were going to give me a new pet. But this one will not be a dog, it will be a cat!!!! I like cats and I promise to take care of it and not let it run off to the road as my dog had done who died.
