I stumbled across this blog, Falling Leaflets, via Twitter. Have I mentioned how much I love Twitter? It is super resource for both writers and teachers. Anyway, if you find yourself with a few extra minutes, hop over to Falling Leaflets for all kinds of good stuff.

Hello there! May you find inspiration to celebrate your story, even in the middle of the muddle.
I’m the director of a professional development consortium of 30 schools in northern Indiana committed to empowering student-centered learning. I write books, articles and other stuff because I’m sure stories + teachers make the world a better place. Most importantly, I’m completely charmed by my forever family. Welcome to my corner of the world.
Discover. Play. Build. is full of resources to make teaching writers manageable and enjoyable. You’ll find video minilessons, downloadable resources and even a preview copy of my new book!
This is a fantastic resource…I'm taking baby steps and writing two “things” this summer – so this will be a blog to keep an eye on! Also loved the quote from Roald Dahl:
“You never know when a lovely idea is going to flit suddenly into your mind, but by golly, when it does come along, you grab it with both hands and hang on to it tight.
The trick is to write it down at once.”
What better reason for hauling along the writer's notebook every day and every where??!!
Wow, thanks Ruth! I'm so flattered that you like my blog 🙂 And thanks to Tara (above) as well!
