Claire Burbank... Here.
Hi, I’m Claire Burbank and I’m twelve years old. I always knew I had a passion for writing. In any free time I get, I think, “I want to write!” There are three reasons I do:
1. It’s really fun to tell my own fictional stories with detail, drama and comedy.
2. I want to publish my books so the world can read them and enjoy them.
3. I want people to know the important issue of bullying but have a good time learning about it in a fun way (like Five Crows, Sassy Tomatoes, Bullying, Mo Lemont, Magically Acquainted and Claire Burbank Book Collections Volume One and Two).
While I’m not writing, I’m either playing basketball, acting, singing, doing homework, or playing on my iPad.
Now finally, I’ll talk about my writing career. Once Upon a time…Just kidding, who does that anymore? It all started back in third grade when I made a little book about bullying. (Available on iTunes, just search Claire Burbank…) It was about this girl named Amelda and she gets bullied. She gets teased about her appearance and how she was different from the others. I had watched many movies about bullying and had seen some people get bullied and didn’t even realize it. I wanted to make up for all of those times I didn’t stand up for the other person and those times I might have been apart of the teasing by writing a little book. It probably took me about ten minutes to write this little 7 paged picture book. I brought it to my classroom and showed it to my guidance counselor, who was the person it was dedicated to. She recognized my care for bullying and put it on the school website. When it was taken down for the next piece of news to be shown, I wanted people to keep viewing it. So, I decided to publish it along with the help of my dad and his many IT director friends. It was a long process, but we ended up publishing it on iTunes, and I wanted to keep writing. So, I decided to make and publish more books about bullying, realistic fiction or not so realistic fiction. I currently have published eight books: Bullying, CBBC (Claire Burbank Book Collection) Volume One, CBBC Volume Two, Five Crows, Sassy Tomatoes, Mo Lemont, Loop of Dreams and Magically Acquainted .
I have worked really hard on all of these books and if you choose to read them, I appreciate it. You will definitely learn about Bullying, empowerment and the importance of being yourself.
I love writing so much, I want to pursue it as a career. I hope you enjoy my stories!
XOXO,
