Civil War Writing Ides

My story is going to be about a young girl that was a slave and she has escaped from the south with her family to head on the underground rail road to get to the north and be free. I have decided that the girl's name is going to be Annie, and she is a slave that works around the house with her mom, and her brother and her dad are the cotton pickers. There is going to be a tragedy when they are trying to escape, but I am not going to ruin it! My story is going to describe the life of a slave and what it was like to be a run away, and what did people back then think of the north. Was it the just like they thought it was going to be, how so? Why did they leave, to be free, to have power, just to get away?

(Stay tuned for my story and see what happnes, put yourself in a body of a slave, experience the past!)
