Just A Bit Of Fun

By Dawn Pitts

Monica is the 13-year-old daughter of Patrick and Shannon Ramsey, and is an only child. After asking for permission to have friends stay overnight many times her parents thought Monica wants a sister, and decide to surprise her with news that they have arranged to foster Cindy, a 10-year-old with behavioural problems.
Cindy is everything that Monica is not. After weeks of sneaking out of the house at night leaving Monica to worry about her wellbeing, Cindy joins a gang after proving her worth by stealing and Monica reluctantly agrees to go with her only to discover that the so-called ‘bit of fun’ is anything but.
A free ride in a police car brings ‘Just a Bit of Fun’ to the exciting climax.

My writing career began in 1999 when I was led to write a children's book. A few years earlier I was working as a Library Assistant in a high school and soon discovered that a number of young teenagers had reading difficulties and that there was no suitable material for them to read. This was the seed that grew a few years later when I was walking regularly in an effort to lose weight when I heard a voice tell me to write a children's book. My reaction was, "No way. I'm not good at that sort of thing and where would I start." Feeling smug I continued home and tried to put the idea out of my mind. A few days later the Reader's Digest arrived in the letterbox and in it was a course for Writing for Children. I almost died."Over the next six months I completed the course and then had the confidence to join a local writing group. Since then I've have had success entering both local and national competitions. I now teach classes as a volunteer and enjoy passing the knowledge on to other authors.I have three adult children and five adult grandchildren.

The swim refreshed her after the hot walk home from school. It was the first hot day of the season. Monica’s fine, long hair clung to her face as she climbed out of the pool.

Monica felt great. Walking into the large family room she completed drying off and pulled her hair back in a clip.
