I need help now on writing what a highschool principal and teachers life is like, it’s for a story based in the 1980’s, I need to know the basics, thanks :) <3

Hi… I want to know what are the traits of a bad guy (antagonist)?

Oh, I probably should’ve given you some more context there. The 14 year old and the 16 year old meet over the summer and have time to bond without being interrupted by busy class schedules. The girls don’t live in the same state, though. But the book is set to end with the 16 year old writing a letter to the 14 year old saying that she’s moving to the 14 year old’s state/enrolling in the same high school as her. So if I decide to write a book to follow up this one, that’ll be the focus. Thanks!

Oh, cool! Thanks for letting me know! That sounds like an interesting premise! There’s lots to do over the summer, so that makes sense. 🙂 Great ideas!

I’ve got a question about age differences. Would it be considered appropriate for a 14 year old and a 16 year old to be in a relationship in a novel?

stephanieatillman

Hmmm, interesting question. I think it probably depends on where it’s set. I could easily see a 14-year-old wanting to be in a relationship with a 16-year-old, but I’m having a hard time seeing it go the other way. I… Read moreI’ve got a question about age differences.
