• a question

Continuing your writing

Here are some tips as you continue to write your story:

• Check your sentence openers – it will help your writing to flow
• Use your plan!
• Have your character(s) react to each new event – show feelings
• Think about your reader – how do you want them to react?

Have a go at proofreading and editing the example text – that might help you tackle your own story.
