All-ages appropriate Writing Club!

Hey writing friends! Who wants to share inspiration, advice, and stories?

I thought I'd start a thread for writers who write kid-friendly stories! Not necessarily kid books, just stuff that would be okay for them to read.

A few questions to start us off:
  • What story are you working on right now? Want to share?
  • What is your favorite book or series and what are you reading right now? (Reading impacts writing a lot)
  • What is your favorite genre to read/write?
  • Do you prefer first, second, or third perspective?
  • How would you describe your writing style?
  • What part(s) of writing a story do you struggle with?
And here's an inspiring quote I recently heard: "Reading is inhaling and writing is exhaling."

I'm looking forward to some fun and good reading!
Hey thanks! I'll join if okay with you?
 
I'd love to read one of your books!

I struggle with writer's block too. Hopefully someone has some advice for us! Your writing style sounds similar to mine and I get what you mean when you say it's hard to get rolling.
I majorly get wb (writers block,) too!

Here is one of my stories!
A Day in the Field

My days as a falconer start early in the morning as I must get myself and my best bird ready for a day of hunting in the field.
My best bird if you're wondering, is a 3-year-old peregrine falcon by the name of Thunder, now he earned his name because the peregrine falcon is the fastest bird in the world and that is one of the reasons he is my best hunter.
There are multiple things to be done before we can hit the field.
First I must go out to his enclosure and retrieve him, then I must weigh him to make sure he's the ideal weight for a peregrine falcon.
Once I have finished weighing him I put his anklets and jesses on, those are the pieces of leather they wear on their legs, then I put his hood on so he doesn't spook during the car ride.
Awhile later we reach our destination, a quiet open field.
I unload my equipment, put on my glove, make sure I have my whistle, and finally, I bring out Thunder.
Now that we're out in the field I take off his hood and now he can see everything around him, as I was walking I noticed that he was persistently looking at something over in the brush, I take out a small pair of binoculars and look in the same direction.
I then spotted what Thunder was looking at, it was a small flock of ground birds, so I unhooked his jesses from my glove and almost immediately he took off like a bullet after the small flock of birds.
Now he was in a high-speed chase with his prey and determined not to lose it, I took out my binoculars again and kept an eye on him, and when he dove into the flock I thought he missed, but then I heard the bells on his anklets ringing, so I knew he must've gotten something.
I ran over to him as fast as I could and when I got there he had his feathers all fluffed up and wings drooped, I reached down and picked him up, re-hooking his jesse to my glove, once I had him secured on my glove I reached down and picked up what was left of a small bird and put it in my bag.
As I was heading back to the car I stroked his soft feathery chest for a bit and complimented his good hunting, I could tell he was pleased with himself, so we both enjoyed a beautiful sunset.
Once I got back to the car I loaded him back in, put his hood on, and shut the small door on his crate.
A short while later finally got back home, so I took Thunder back to his enclosure and said goodnight, fed him, and then headed back inside.
Today was a great day in the field.
