I just finished publishing the fourth book for St. Louis Writers Guild. Love these books. The Young Writers Awards is a contest SLWG holds every year and the winners and finalists are now published in a collection.
SLWG 2022 Young Writers Collection: "Along the river..." is available as an ebook and paperback.
The stories by 4th-12th Graders are always so good.

Here is what I do.
Write.
