Hey CD users-
I'm in need of some help with an important project, and I thought that maybe some nice CD users could help me out
Currently, I am working on my Gold Award project for Girl Scouts. It is the equivalent of the Boy Scout Eagle Scout award, and it requires at least 60 hours of work.
For my project, I decided to write a book about grief for teenagers who experience the loss of a parent. My mom passed away when I was 12, and I searched endlessly for things to read, and I was very unsuccessful. My ultimate goal of the project is teenagers who experience the loss of a parent can turn to a small book with advice and stories from another teenager. It's not a "professional opinion" its one of somebody who experienced the real deal. (My English teacher thinks I should try to get it published, but that’s another task on itself.)
Now here’s what I need help:
I'm running out of things to write about! I've written about 2/3 as much as my goal (which is 20 pages single spaced size 10 font.) I’ve written about a variety of topics ranging from holidays to family to stress to ways to cope with loss.
If you were in that situation, what would you want to read about?
What might be some of the things you would experience that you would want to know how others felt?
What might be some advice you would seek??
I'm just looking for any ideas or thoughts you have in regards to the topic.
Thanks for your help!
