****Originally The secrets within but changed title, also I own all rights to my story :)****
Prologue
Look at the world, yeah go on and look at it. Now tell me, What do you see? Home? Life? Secrets? Death? Anything? Well most people always see it differently. But they never see what’s right in front of them.
When you look at the world you always see the small things. You never see the big obvious things that lurk in the shadows of every dark corner .
Well some of us see it, others… don’t. You’d be surprised by ever secret, every hidden thing yet to be discovered… or never will.And I...

This is for those who have just begun writing, or for those who need helpful advice. I hope this article helps you.

1) Spelling and Grammar

Spelling and grammar is the first thing you worry about. If there are many spelling/grammatical errors, the story doesn't flow very well. You don't have to be an expert, but you at least should have a dictionary nearby and know the basic rules of grammar. You'll pick up on more the more you write.

2) Know Your Topic

First and foremost, after spelling and grammar, you must know what you're writing about. And I don't just mean a topic in general. For example,...

Mommy... Johnny brought a gun to school,
He told his friends that it was cool,
And when he pulled the trigger back,
It shot with a great crack.
Mommy, I was a good girl, I did what I was told,
I went to school, I got straight A's, I even got the gold!
But Mommy, when I went school that day,
I never said good-bye,
I'm sorry Mommy, I had to go, But Mommy, please don't cry. When Johnny shot
the gun, He hit me and another,
And all because Johnny, Got the gun from his older brother.
Mommy, please tell Daddy; That I love him very much,
And please tell Chris; my boyfriend; That it wasn't just a crush.
And tell...

I am broken.
    My body is broken.
        I limp down the sidewalk.
        People stare. Are they concerned? Or disgusted?
        I wish I was invisible.
    My family is broken.
        My father disowns me.
        My mother is disappointed.
        I don’t know my brother at all.
    My life is broken.
        My friends are gone.
        My job can’t support me.
        I have nowhere to turn.
    But my soul is unbroken.
        I still believe in good.
        I still have hope.
        I still think the world can change.
I may be broken.
But my soul is not.

I like to sing. No, scratch that. I love to sing. Just... not in front of people. It's not really my cup of tea performing for everyone who wants to hear me. How would I be able to sing when people are screaming my name?

"LEE! LEE! LEE!"

What a nightmare that'd be.

When I'm alone I can hum a sweet tune to myself, but never when there are a couple of people around. Someday, I'm gonna get over my stage-fright and when I do, I'll be able to sing in front of millions of people as I become a star around the world. Unfortunately, I believe my phobia of the spotlight will keep me from getting to my goal....

Chapter Fourteen

It wasn’t the dinner that they didn’t had before. It was very different. It was a dinner of confusion especially for the two little girls.

During the dinner of steak, mashed potatoes, and peas, Mac and Izzie watched their Mama and Mr. Sean eat their dinner in silent even through Mac saw Sean giving her mother some glimpses of his grins to Jamie to tell her that this was a great dinner she served. Hoping that Mama saw those grins that Sean saw her, the only thing she saw that her mother was just eating her dinner, drinking her Iced Tea, and wiping the messes that was on Jake’s...

Poem #1: Seasons Change (Free verse)
Seasons change;
what does that mean?
It feels like magic.
As the cold fades away,
replaced by sunny warm days,
and the sun shines bright
in the era of Summer.
And the snow falls silently
and you see your breath,
clouding the chilly air in the Winter.
Spring and Autumn, all their own,
after the winter days have flown.
Spring brings its joy with the crisp fresh air,
and Summer comes along,
Autumn follows by with the tumbling leaves,
as each season passes by,
I wonder what makes it change,
I guess I might never know
unless I try hard enough to see.
But if I must come to a conclusion...
