Here’s the thing. The first page of his story begins on Chapter
Two. I asked him why. He said he wanted to start with something happening so he
skipped Chapter One and would come back to it later.
Hmm. I think his Chapter Two is his Chapter One. The kid's instincts are right.
Do you think your novel starts in the right place?

This is too funny--and too real!
What an insightful young author.

Adorable! The kid has good instincts!
How cute!! And what a smartie!!! I didn't learn to start when the action did until I was 30, haha.
He's a writer, through and through!
I actually just added a new chapter one before the story gets started, to set the mood.
I suppose it could have been a prologue, but I don't often see the point of those. Just make it chapter one.
ALL: Thanks, guys! Yeah, I think he's a writer in the making.
Wow! That is so interesting he said that!!
You must be one proud mom!
KELLY: You know I am! :)
