Help Our Children Write the Future!

Our children will write the future. What they write will be largely up to us.

Cindy and I have been working on our Children Write the Future site for a really… er, REALLY long time now. Setback after setback, it’s sat in our lab, patiently waiting for the time when it could have the attention it so deserves.

One of our biggest desires is to build a high-quality online home where young writers and their parents can comfortably gather.

Starting this coming Monday, Children Write the Future will publish a continuously evolving stream of content, five days a week. However, we both believe it is often easiest to learn with consistency in place.

For the time being, the Children Write the Future schedule is as follows.

  • Monday: We will start each week with writing tips for young and emerging writers that will both encourage them to become their best writers while also giving them the tools they need to make their writing as sharp as it can be.
  • Tuesday: A writing prompt will be given each week to get those creative juices flowing.
  • Wednesday: On Wednesday’s, Cindy and I will write a post together, discussing the most common roadblocks to writing, simple solutions, best practices and emerging trends.
  • Thursday: Our 7 year old daughter Mia is going to be publishing her work each Thursday, along with the occasional guest post from another child. There are also whispers that Lucas Bright may make an appearance or two.
  • Friday: A serialized excerpt from an upcoming book. Our first selection is, Penny to a Million, my first chapter book going to print, and a topic I’ll be talking a lot more about shortly.

We’ve also decided to gather each week’s information and publish it in a weekly newsletter, in an easy to digest format delivered directly to our subscriber’s inbox. It is 100% free and sent out each Friday.

You can sign up for the newsletter below right now. Otherwise, we’d love to see you at the site next Monday!

  • Thanks Georgie Porgie!

    This site is an interesting one and I'm eager to see where it goes. 5 days a week may be ambitious, but I think I've figured out the right strategy to make it happen.
  • It can be tough finding the time to get new projects underway. Setbacks are a pain but it's nice to see you've overcome them. Good luck on your first full week of posting.
