After a great deal of hard work four JHS students, James Utter, Lyndsi Wood, Brittanie Leigh, and Tamara VanNostrand, have completed their novels and now have a copy of them in their hands. Congratulations to all of you.
If you would like to read their stories just stop in the library and checkout the JHS Writers Anthology 2006.
Have you got a story in your head that is just craving to get out? Watch this space because at the end of October we will start all over again and produce stories for the 2007 edition of the JHS Writers Anthology. The only condition… your story has to be 2000 words or more in length.
