FOR TEACHERS & HOME SCHOOLERS

BookCoverPreview 2Announcing New Online Writing Camp for Teens!

For home schoolers and teens, I’ve created an online, 5-day creative writing program called Writing Camp for Teens. The program contains five activity bundles with writing-centered exercises, crafts,  resources, and the odd field trip. You will have enough writing prompts to last a long time. There are options that include email coaching or a critique of your story. Please check out Writing Camp for Teens here.

Teachers, I’ve been in your shoes, and I wouldn’t have traded that experience for anything. Teaching creative writing and literature is so gratifying–and a big strain on resources. I hope that what I offer here will help you as you create wonderful writing and learning experiences for your students.

My newest release is A JOURNAL for Teen Writers. I wrote it to combine the best of several worlds: motivating quotes from writers (many of them published as teens), brainstorming pages, 50 writing prompts to inspire stories, PLUS some images for coloring and spaces for doodling to help clear the mind so writers can be their most creative selves. It would make a great gift for your young writer at home or as a book prize for a writing contest or award. Click on the cover photo to get a peek inside at Amazon.
