MY FIRST DIARYKeeping a diary is great practice if you’d like to become
an author one day. Use the writing prompts below (adapted from Nancy Clancy: My Secret Diary) to make your first diary
entry; it could be the beginning of your first short story or book!
What kinds of stories would you like to tell?
What would your main character be like? What would he or she be named?
Can you think of a good title for your story? Write some options.
Start your story! If you get writer’s block—which means you don’t know what should happen next—ask a friend to help you brainstorm some creative ideas.
