Last Week

Last week I taught a writing workshop for kids. It was pretty remarkable and pretty intense. I mean, I even forgot to post Story School on Wednesday. (Thank you Kevin and Alexa for reminding me!)

Anyway, whenever I am teaching writing, I always end up re-learning some very important truths:


Just like the wand chooses the wizard in Harry Potter, sometimes the story chooses us.

Inspiration can be found in the strangest of places.


Expect the unexpected.


Being part of a writing community is better than not being part of a writing community.


Other people have amazing ideas.


Kids are the best.


Go deep.


Writing is for everyone.


Stories bring us together.


Have a great week!
