Hello Slicers! I’m delighted you’re joining us today!
Please post a permalink to your slice of life story in the comments section of this post. Then click and comment on at least three other Slicers’ writing.
I am a literacy consultant who focuses on writing workshop. I've been working with K-6 teachers and students since 2009. Prior to that, I was a fourth and fifth-grade teacher in New York City and Rhode Island.
I'm the author of Craft Moves (Stenhouse Publishers, 2016) and the co-author of Jump Into Writing (Zaner-Bloser, 2021), Welcome to Writing Workshop (Stenhouse Publishers, 2019), and Day By Day (Stenhouse, 2010).
I live in Central Pennsylvania with my husband and children. In my free time, I enjoy swimming, doing Pilates, cooking, baking, making ice cream, and reading novels.

I’m having a LOT of trouble leaving comments the last 3 weeks in a row! Is it me? Something has changed, and it seems to be with Blogger, in particular. Does anybody know a secret to posting comments that I’m missing all of a sudden?

After a whirlwind of teaching institutes and graduate courses this summer, I’m back on the bandwagon. I’ve been thinking, reading, and writing a lot about memory lately.
Yesterday I created a picture book list for my daughters as they embark on a new adventure in a couple weeks …. it turned out to be a love letter. (Thanks Susan!!!)
