Last year we opened a Cafe Press store for people interested in buying some Slicer swag. We received our commission from our store a couple of weeks ago and recently made another donation to the Pajama Program with the profits.

And now, what you came for. It’s time to link up by leaving a comment below.
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.

Btw: My apologies for posting this at 5 am instead of midnight. This post has been scheduled to go live at 12:01 a.m. for two weeks. Problem is that it was scheduled for May 9th, which isn’t even a Tuesday.
