As an educator myself, I am looking for ways to help my book and my visits to schools be as educational sound as possible. In an effort to do this, I’m providing a “Resources for Educators” on my website to help teachers encourage people to write.
Right now, I have presentations about revision, “Be Wise-Revise”, the path to becoming a writer, and a section called “Jump-Start Stories” which is a worksheet to help student writers organize their thoughts into the basic building blocks of a story.
I’m trying other things, like a presentation for German Teachers and free downloadable piano music that goes with the book for piano teachers.
I would love feedback and suggestions for other things that might be helpful. Here’s the link:

I’m excited to see everyone at the Storymaker’s Conference!
