Hey APers!
I've just started a blog titled "The Story Club" (inspired by Anne of Green Gables...I'm open to suggestions for a different name, though). It's meant to be a place of encouragement, advice, and inspiration to teen writers. I'll be interviewing people (hopefully incuding a couple of "real" authors!), posting tips, ideas, helpful websites etc. and reviewing/promoting/generally talking about other people's works. It's going to focus on fiction and poetry and guess where I'm hoping to get some material from?
That's right. You lovely people!
SO I'll be wanting to interview people, so if you'd like to do that let me know (comment here or email me). Interviews with people who've been, are trying to be, or are going to be published would be especially wonderful.
I'm going to do the same thing on this blog my friend and I did on another blog, which is to post a poem every week. Normally I'd pick a poem and contact the writer about posting it but it would be v e r y convenient for you to just comment on this and say "I am totally cool with it; you can use my poetry anytime you like, Katie!" If you are, of course. XD
If I'm going to review something I will let you know and ask permission to use an excerpt.
My email address, if you'd like to contact me that way, is katiebird75@gmail.com
The blog site is katiesstoryclub.blogspot.com
Thanks!
-Katie :-)

Pretty much ditto to what
Pretty much ditto to what Erin said. You can use my stuff too. Not so sure I'm interview material at this point, but if you really want to and you run out of "real" authors, you're welcome to. I also don't think the name needs to be changed; it sounds pretty cool.

Ditto to Erin and Bridget,
Ditto to Erin and Bridget, though...I don't really write poetry, so that might not work very well. :P Sounds like a lovely idea, though, and I very much like the title.
wow!
This is amazing! It's so great that people like you are contributing to encouraging others like this!! Too bad I'm not a teen anymore... :D (or anywhere near being published, haha... I'll have to read your site for tips!!)
That sounds really fun! I'll
That sounds really fun! I'll be checking. Also "I am totally cool with it; you can use my poetry anytime you like, Katie!" haha.
