Writing Topics
I am a 14-year old gurl and I applied for a $250 scholarship to a writing camp this summer and I won it! I am attending a one-week writing camp in Michigan...which is over 6 hours away. I am wondering if you can give me some hints/tips on writing(all different techniques such as poetry..short stories, etc...)...and also some topics! (I write a lot of poetry and am well-known for it too) Thanks!

Want to answer more questions in the Relationships category?
Maybe give some free advice about: Gift Giving?
Ahhh....writing. I do it every day. That's the key. Get into the habit and you will learn what you're good at and what you like.
Topics come from anything. Stare at a spider spinning a web. Watch people and how they interact in a public place. Write about your past, your relationships, your dog. Topics are endless. The hard part sometimes is choosing which one.
I started by taking a writing course. Going to camp is going to be a good place for you to learn and discover. There are yahoo groups for writers. I belong to a few. It's a good place to ask questions and get writing opportunities. I got a two year contract to write a fiction column for a newspaper through a yahoo group. I know there are teen groups.

Well, I'm pretty sure thats what the camp is for :)
Well, my hints and tips for writing would be don't force the words, let the flow, read a thesurus or dictonary occasionaly to increase your lexicon, let your imagination fly free, try to be daring in your writing style, don't let yourself be tied to how other people think you ought to do things
As for topics, well there are a trillion and one differnt topics, just walk down your highstreet and you'll see loads of things and people just waiting to be written about.
Good luck at camp, it sounds fun :)

Well it depends on what kids of writings . Like poetry for example try Haiku's , or simply try to express yourself when it comes to writing poetry . Another unique way to do in poetry , is to express other people's feelings & emotions on some issue's . Really when writing, keep a open mind and express your concerns and other's too . I don't know about any topic's you'd have to tell me what they assign u . Well good luck and I also have to say that I hope u do well at this camp .
