STAR LETTER

A LESSON FOR TEACHER

Now then, let’s start off simple. My name is Daisy Blacklock, I’m thirteen years old and I’m a writer. Yes, I am a writer. In fact, we all are. It may have taken me a while to figure it out, but I’m telling you now, you are a writer.

While life goes on, I sit and struggle with my mental health and each and every day there are setbacks. Some bigger than others, but I’m here to master them.

I usually love school but anxiety has left me unable to attend. After a meeting with some teachers, I was told I would never succeed. And guess what? I succeed each and every day.

I have won one international children’s writing competition, won one national children’s writing competition, placed third in another national children’s writing competition, and I’m never going to succeed you say? I succeed when I accept my rejections. I succeed when I read a book. I succeed when I learn something new. I succeed when I read . I succeed when I smile. I can be that writer that succeeds, we all can.
