2013 Writing Challenge #5

Happy July!  I don't know about you, but I'm having a tough time with it being July already.  Summer is flying by way too fast!  Does anyone have big plans for July 4th?  We haven't decided what we'll be doing, but we are staying close to home.  This heat is killing me, so I don't think we'll spend too much time outside.  On this holiday week, we're going to write a little historical fiction.

2013 Writing Challenge #5

Write a fictional story that takes place before or during the Revolutionary War.  Your characters can be early colonists or soldiers, regular people or famous historical figures.  

*For those going into 8th grade, you will be writing a historical fiction piece for the Revolutionary War as a requirement this year, so this could be a head start for you to get the ideas flowing.

Happy Writing and stay cool!
