Writing can be fun!
I am dedicated to inspiring kids to write and think creatively. That's what my school visits are all about. I've been to over 250 schools and worked with nearly 100,000 students. I believe in the power of kids' imaginations, and work very hard to give students a taste of the fun of generating an original idea, whether it's for narrative or persuasive writing.
In my travels, I've discovered that there are two other groups of people involved with kids who also need creative encouragement: parents and teachers.
So I've developed evening programs that schools can use to reach out to parents. And I offer in-service programs for teachers. All of my programs combine practicality with inspirational fun. I think creativity is a blast, and I want all my sessions to leave you feeling the same.

I now offer two full-day programs for schools that address state-tested areas of writing:
My popular presentation for Narrative Writing.
And my brand new show covering Persuasive Writing.
Each program is to motivate your students to get excited about their ideas. Each program includes an assembly presentation followed by workshops. They'll get your kids eager to write!
