Local author J. Scott Savage has captivated students across the Weber School District with his inspiring message about the power of creativity and storytelling. Over the past week, Savage visited twelve schools in the district, sharing his expertise and encouraging students to embrace their imaginations.

During his visits, Savage guided students through the elements of a well-crafted story, from character development to plot structure. Students were then challenged to create their own original storylines, sparking their creativity and fostering a love for writing.

Savage, a prolific author with over 20 books to his name, primarily focuses on children's fantasy. His latest work, "Quantum Interstellar Sports League," has been praised for its imaginative world-building and engaging characters.

The author's visits have been met with enthusiasm from both students and educators. By inspiring young minds to explore the world of storytelling, Savage hopes to cultivate a new generation of writers and readers.

As part of the presentation Savage shares the power of stories and how every student can engage the process of storytelling. Savage says, "I want kids to see that reading and writing can be fun and not a chore."

Also,On Saturday, September 21, author J. Scott Savage launched his new book, Quantum Interstellar Sports League, at Mountain View Junior High.  Over 300 attendees were able to play a football throwing game, solve puzzles and complete a ring toss so they could earn a spin at the prize wheel.  J.
