Is the problem with the page fixed? It is for me, but I'm not sure if it will work for everyone.

When I try to click on my page My Stories it says "the page you are looking for does not exist. Is anyone else having that problem?

Part 3 of my story

It was time for dinner.  Andy was sitting at the table with her mom and Jessie, waiting for her dad to come in. She couldn’t wait. Everything was ready; she had the worms in her pocket. She just needed her dad to come in. Oh hurry up! I can’t wait much longer. Just then her dad came in.

“Finally,” she said, more to herself then her family. “It’s about time.”

“So, what’s for dinner tonight?” asked Andy’s dad.

“Pasta,” said Andy “Can I dish it out?”

“Of course you can,” said Andy’s mom. “This is a surprise; next you’ll be wanting to wash the dishes.”

“Oh, I can wash the dishes tonight,” said Andy. “I’d be glad to.”

“Whoa, that’s too much. What are you up to?” asked her dad.

“Nothing,” said Andy. “I just want to help out.”

“Well, if you want to, that’s fine with me,” said her mom. “Then I don’t have to do it.”

“Can we start dinner?” asked Jessie. “I’m starved.”

“Yes, we can,” said Andy, starting to dish out her own pasta, “I am too.” 

She walked around the table, giving pasta to her mom and then her dad. Then she came to Jessie. She put the pasta on Jessie’s plate. How do I do this? Oh, I know.

“Look Jessie! There’s a cool butterfly out the window!” said Andy.

“Oh that’s so cool!” said Jessie, getting up and going over to the window.

Andy took the worms out of her pocket, and put them on Jessie’s plate; then she used Jessie’s fork to stir it up so that Jessie wouldn’t realize that there were worms in it. Then she went and sat down at the table.

“Hey, Jessie, come over here so that we can eat,” said Andy.

“Okay,” said Jessie, coming over to sit at the table and picking up her fork to take a bite. “Yum!”

Andy was having trouble trying not to laugh out loud.

“Andy? What are you doing?” asked her mom.

“Nothing,” said Andy. “May I be excused?”

“Yes, you may. But remember that you said you would wash the dishes.”

“I will,” said Andy.

“Okay,” said her mom. “Come in here to wash the dishes in 45 minutes.”

“I will,” said Andy, walking over to the steps and starting to walk upstairs. “See you then.”

That was so funny! I just hope she doesn’t realize that she’s eating worms. Andy went into her room. What should I do for 45 minutes? I guess I could practice the flute, but that won’t be fun. I guess I will anyway. So Andy went and took her flute out of her case and started practicing. She was pretty good, but Jessie didn’t think so. She barged into Andy’s room.

“Will you stop it?” Jessie asked. “It’’s really annoying.”

“I really need to practice,” said Andy. “Oh, by the way. Did you like dinner?”

Uh, yeah,” said Jessie. “Why?”

“I was just wondering,” said Andy.

“Andy!” her mom called. “Come down here and wash the dishes!”

“I’m coming!” said Andy.

She started to go downstairs.

“Stay out of my room!” said Andy. “And don’t touch my flute!”

Part 2 of my story

It was two hours later, and Andy was outside in the garden digging for worms. She had a simple plan for that night; she had asked her mom if they could have pasta for dinner, and her mom had said yes. When it was time for dinner she would offer to dish out the pasta. She would have worms in her pocket, and when she gave Jessie hers she would slip the worms into it. Then Jessie would eat the worms. Just thinking about eating worms made Andy shiver, but it was the perfect revenge. 

“What are you doing Andy?” asked her mom.

“Oh, I’m watering the garden,” said Andy, hurriedly picking up a watering can. “Oh, I just ran out of water, I’ll be right back.” 

Andy walked around to the front of the house to pretend to fill up the watering can but then she thought: I’d better actually fill it up in case mom comes to see where I am. So she filled the watering can, but then she ran inside to her bedroom to put the worms there until dinner. Then she ran outside to water the garden. Just wait until tonight, I think my plan is going to work.

I hope you like it!

A story that I am writing

I am writing a story! I don't have a name for it yet, but I am going to put the first paragraph on here. Please comment if you like it.

Chapter 1

“Hey, Jessie! Come here!” said Andy Walker. “It’s time to go!”

Andy was a 10 year old girl with brown hair and blue eyes; she had two siblings, Jessie and Tom, who were twins and both 8 years old.

“I’ll be there in a minute,” said Jessie. “I just found a really cool butterfly!”

Siblings, they can be so annoying. We’re going to be late meeting Anna. Anna was Andy’s best friend, but Jessie always insisted on coming with her to meet Anna, who lived just down the street from her.

“If you don’t come right now I’m going without you,” said Andy.

“Now Andy,” said her mom who had been watching them through the window, “you need to bring Jessie with you.”

“But mom why?” grumbled Andy. “Why can’t I go alone just once to see Anna? It’s really annoying to have my sister following me everywhere.”

“Maybe you can go over alone soon, but for today I need you to take her with you.”

“Why?” said Andy.

“Because Tom isn’t here, and I need to clean the house up. It’s a disaster, especially Jessie and Tom’s room.”

Tom was at a weeklong sleep away soccer camp so he wasn’t there.

“Oh, alright,” said Andy, “but next time I want to go alone.” 

Andy decided that she was going to get back at Jessie for getting her way, and it was going to be tonight. A plan was already forming in her mind.

“Okay,” said her mom. “Thanks for going with her today.”

“Huh? Oh yeah, you’re welcome,” said Andy.

“Are you okay?” asked Andy’s mom.

“Yeah, fine,” said Andy. “Come on now Jessie. We need to go, we’re already 10 minutes late.” 

Jessie walked over to Andy.

“I’m ready to go,” said Jessie. “Come on we’ll be late!” 

She has some nerve saying that to me after what she did, but she’ll be sorry tonight.

I hope you like it! I will be posting more of it soon.
