September 8, 2010 - Writer's Craft Opening Activity - Part B

One of the most successful writers of our times, Endi Beqiri has motivated our youth to try and make something with their lives. Born in Europe and raised in Canada, his various views on almost everything allow him to write books that can relate to many people of various cultures all at once. It could be said that this is the main cause of his massive success. With inspirational works such as “Between the Lockers”, which is a book of two teenagers of conflicting nationalities that fall in love with one another but are judged by their peers and… I will not ruin the ending for you here. “Between the Lockers” is no wonder that he is one of the most credited writers of our time. By the age of 18, Mr. Beqiri has been able to accumulate prestigious awards such as the “National Book Award” and the Nobel Prize, being the first man to ever do that. We asked him about his future books and all he had to say was:


“I myself am not sure of what I am going to write about next. All I know is that it will be something very meaningful to me.”

Mr. Beqiri will be going on a trip around the world, hoping to gain inspiration for his future books. Judging by his past work, this trip will be “mind-blowing” and it will probably bring a new perspective to novel-writing altogether. Until then, we will just have to wait until we obtain further updates from the mouth of the master-mind himself.
