Hello there!
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.
Don’t miss my website!
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!
I {heart} this quote! I stopped and read it aloud the first time I got to this part in the book.
Sometimes you read words and your mind says, “Gosh, I wish I had written/thought that.” “A scar means, I survived.” How true!
Beautiful, Ruth. I still haven't read this book, but have seen it come up in such rave reviews, now a quote from you, too. Thank you!
I loved this book. I loved this quote. They do remain as such a reminder that healing does take place. xo
