Readings

I have a power point presentation available for creative writing workshops. Students are shown how story ideas began for me and became published books. They are given a chance to find characters and story ideas that teachers can use later in the classroom for creative writing. This is ideal for Grades 3 and older. I do an interactive reading with primary grades using my picture books.
