Boat & Airplane
by Amy LV
A couple of weeks ago, flying over the Great Lakes, I looked down at Earth. We weren't too high yet, and I could see tiny sailboats making little white wave wakes. I thought about me looking down at the boats, and I wondered if anyone in those boats was looking up at the plane. Somehow this story poem took hold then and comes to you, mysteriously, today...
Students - here is a neat writing contest, expiring on January 17, 2010. It's at Spilling Ink, a website named after the inspiring book by Anne Mazer and Ellen Potter. Well, these two authors are hosting a short story contest involving an invention and a problem. The prize is a book and a Skype visit with the author Ellen Potter...a visit during which your class can ask questions all about writing! Check out the details here. In case you missed it, I linked to SPILLING INK, the book, back at the end of June.
