The five participants in this week’s Young Authors Workshop at Firefly Moon in Arlington MA made me ultra proud today. These children worked very hard for three hours each day and produced some of the best writing I’ve ever seen. I enjoyed getting to know them and help them hone their writing skills. We ended a wonderful week by holding an Author Reading in the store for parents and relatives.
Below Annika is sharing her Paint Chip Storytelling piece. One color on the chip was peppergrass and this is the picture of it.

And Gemma sharing her Paint Chip Storytelling.
It was a great week and I’m looking forward to meeting a new group of Young Authors at Firefly Moon on July 29th. I’d like to thank Jim & Stephanie Donovan, owners of Firefly Moon, for hosting us and providing such a beautiful space to study our writing.

And so, as another day goes by, I return to the Cape happy and satisfied after a week of doing what I love, I’m blessed that I get to teach once more, and…I have written.
WE LOVE TO WRITE!
