The Stolen Coin is proof that I've always had writing talent :)It was written by my best friend and me when we were ten years old (that's us, age six. I'm the blonde.). Written, performed, and canonized, all in an hour--child prodigies, indeed.
Note original spelling. Also note that the “idenical" twins were of course played by us: a Scandinavian blonde and a Hawaiian brunette.

Ok, wow, I laughed out loud so many times reading that.
Fave line:
"Mom - O.K. That’s fine with me, I miss my baby."
It's all so, so great though. ;)
Yeah ... Carrie had to be created when my mom made us watch my little sister as we "played." We were not playing! We were writing! Geez.
You should see the songs we wrote in ninth grade. Or not. :)
Forgot to mention one of my favorite lines ... "music teatcher."
:D That was fun to read.
I tend to get jobs when I'm writting, too... I have to hide somewhere to write in peace :P
Now I wanna see the songs....
I Love:
That the twins are supposed to look just like you and the villian looks like me..
That we had to call our mom to come watch our sister..
That we had a slide coming out of the side of our house.
That even back then we were yearning to be older than we were.
That Megan pulls a gun on us. And we ran away, and tricked her by throwing the huge penny into the bushes. Not so bright, that Meagan =-)
But I can't remember .. did you play double roles? Who played Meagan?
