Teens are wonderful writers. They learn to improve. To many it is fun. Others discover it is tragic. Their eyes bulge, limbs tremble and lock in place. Pacing affect many. Sweat pops from the brows and under the arms. They need the assistance of seasoned writers who are secure and confident in their writing. Writers who discern a different language applies to various. groups
