Young Writers Anthology 2017

Abstract

Prologue Writing is an art in which the blend of imagination, emotions, beliefs, and experiences are not easy to convey but the passion and willingness have surely overcome the struggles and battles each student might have faced when they decided o write their work. Through composing, no matter the length nor the genre, young writers have proven that setting a goal, having inspiration, displaying courage, awakening creativity, playing with words in order to get a message across, ideas and thoughts, are the basic constituents to achieve what they pursued without hesitation or fear to be criticized: their own masterpiece. Moreover, through accepting the invitation to be a "Young Writer", every composer has had the opportunity to identify one of their many gifts; now it is up to them to be disciplined to develop that inner talent. The present work gives the students the chance to express themselves, promoting writing for enjoyment and generating a sense of pride in creating something unique. This Anthology displays the inner talent of good writers who undoubtedly have been avid readers. They have immersed themselves in an ocean of words; a lexical background that enables them to go beyond their own expectations and without a doubt reading has awakened their desire to write. Young writers, the ones who stand out from the rest of the students have the courage, enthusiasm, creativity, and the talent to catch inspiration to create the stories, letters, poems and the most exciting pieces of writing that this anthology holds. The 2017 Young Writers show determination and courage, this compilation will be from now the inspiration for the generations still to come; it will last forever on the shelves of our library but above all in the hearts and minds of readers and Young Writers. Congratulations to those who didn't give up and made this Anthology a proof of their true willingness and talent.
