An Evil Alien Carrot – Writing Is In The Family

One good thing that has come about because of my writing is that the grand children are showing an interest in writing their own books.

We have been talking about it as a little group, and even Koey (4) wants to be in on it.

They can make some pocket money, especially if we can get it published. Amazon are making that possible.

The plan is first to publish separately and then as a group. They appear to like it, and Lola Grace this week told her Nana that she had written a book, could nana tell gramps. ‘Don’t be silly, you do it.’

Big step for the little girl. But she did and it’s very good. Quite a bit to think about and to do before we get to the final stage but it’s there for us to work on.

Luana, no pressure, an eight-year-old’s hopes are riding on your skills.

Lola Grace then came to me about three days later – Gramps, I have done a follow up book. Well done girl.

The big aim is everyone to have done a book and for it to be in its final stage for National Book day at school.

I have told the teachers and they love the idea.

Book authors before they are ten, that’s got to rank in the pretty cool stats.
