1.) I will most definetly remember all my experiences at camp. However, one experience standsout from the crowd of my memories. That memory is of sitting in with the Sacred writing group. It was really captivating to hear older writers and compare your skill to theirs. I believe when we all walked in that room we began sizing each other up. The adults were listening to us intently to see how our writing was for our age. I believe the kids were listening to the adults to learn new things. All the pieces were well written, some had more emotion, others had more vocabulary, but either way we all learned something that day from one another.
2.) My favorite part of writer’s camp was definatley the free writing. I could be as creative as I wanted. My favorite prompt we wrote was either about having a super power or a special person to you. The special person composition I wrote about was entitled My Pop. I poured alot of emotion into that piece. I elaborated more on the piece at my home. When i wrote about having super powers, It gave me a start to a side novel. I am mainly foucusing on a novel called Natureboy, but that propmte an idea for another novel to work on.
3.) I would of liked to do more free writing. I prefer to write freely on a broad topic. I can be more creative.
4.) I would make the camp to have more free writing, on a topic of our choice and a topic choosen for us. I would also like the camp to be longer. One week seems like so little time. It’s gone by so fast.

I forgot all about writing with all the older people. Free writing was fun. I wish they could have let us write on a topic of our choice once though. My favorite thing you wrote was “my pop” it was really good
