Camp

Letter to a Camp Mate

A 14-year-old boy named Lawrence wrote this letter to another boy, also 14, a few days after he returned from a two-week stay at a summer camp.

Dear Bruce,

During our time at camp, I wanted to tell you something, but I was too afraid to say anything then. I am scared now, but feel I HAVE to write this to you.

I flopped into a chair at the last empty table in activity room four. My shaking knees thanked me, but my butt complained about the hard, plastic seat it landed in. I took a quick look at the kids sitting nearby. So far, nobody seemed to be staring at my sorta-girlish-but-not-really clothes.

This is a map I created for my story, Janegirl Camp. It shows most of the major structures there. I may add more to this map later, as the story progresses, but I think this map, for the most part, is complete. If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to add a comment to this post, or send me a private message.

With all the great feedback I received on my Janegirl Camp related blogs, I wanted to make sure I didn't lose any of them, so I'm going to be linking them here. Mostly, I'm doing this for my own reference, but I imagine others might be interested in the blogs related to this story as well. If you're wondering where I got the term "janegirl" I actually found it in a blog post by Erin Fletcher titled, "Father cut's sons hair, Mother is livid" on Mon, 2021/07/26.

This all kinda started when I read a message someone posted, where janegirl was suggested as being to boys what tomboy is to girls. That caught the interest of my moose (muse), which is how I wound up with the idea for Janegirl Camp. Because so many people seemed to enjoy my original bit of flash fiction, I decided to try expanding on the story. I'm not sure where it will go, but I think the journey will be fun. So, if you're interested, please join me in Janegirl Camp! :)

Janegirl Camp-Chapter 1


I'd recently been reading a message someone posted, where janegirl was suggested as being to boys what tomboy is to girls. That caught the interest of my moose (muse), and I decided to try writing a bit of flash fiction. Because so many people seemed to enjoy the idea of Janegirl Camp, that peice of flash fiction became the first chapter of this story. I'm hoping others will enjoy reading my story as much as I'm having fun writing it! :)

The Camp Of The Willows - Chapter 2

The Camp Of The Willows - Chapter 2
by Barbara Lynn Terry

(Author's note: I call this story The Camp Of The Willows, because I was fortunate enough to have gone there. This is not the real name of the camp. The camp is no longer there and it has been reforested. But while it was there, I had a lot of fun and learned quite a lot about who I am. ~Barbara~)

When I walked in the door, Sharon was sitting on the sofa talking on the phone. I heard her say, "all right, Miss Loretta". She saw me and hung up the phone.

"I thought you were going to come to the 'Tower' and join us."
