An Author in Year 5

Imagine becoming a published author at the age of 10.

Emily Wilson wrote The Lie as a piece of homework when she was nine. Approximately, it took two days to write. It is all about two sisters who tell a lie and the consequences they have to take.

Emily's mum saw an advert in the Lancaster Guardian for a short story cometition and she entered The Lie into it.

When her mum checked her email, the competition was long forgotten, but, the email notified them that Emily had won the Gold Prize and was to have an interview, where she would recieve her pen set and certificate.

Emily's story is being published, along with the other winners, later this year. In a book called Tall Tales and Short Stories.
