First of all, read a lot! You can't learn to write unless you become familiar with what has already been written--with how good writers use words, how they describe characters and turn imagined events into stories. Especially if you're still in school, it will get easier to find words for your ideas after you've spent more years reading. Second, if you have ideas for stories, write them down, even if you can't express them as well as you'd like to.

According to past 4-H'ers, they like 4-H most of all for the FRIENDS they meet, the FUN they have, and the SKILLS they learn. They have fun with friends at meetings, social activities, community service activities, tours, trips, camps, and fairs. They learn to do interesting things such as take pictures, practice cooking, decorate cakes, build model rockets, take care of plants and animals, wrap gifts, create a scrapbook, shoot a bow and arrow, or drive a lawn tractor through an obstacle course.
