On August 29th Kelsey Corter tells us,
Writing is something I do. Writer is something I am.
She explains how ideas can pop into her head everywhere. She explains how writing her feelings helps her let things go. How it is often easier to write about feeling than talk about them. If you’ve chosen this year to write alongside your students, maybe you’re noticing how being a writer is making its presence in your life.
As you join us on Tuesday year-round for Slice of Life we hope to learn about how being a teacher who writes is making its presence in your days. All you have to do is write a post on your blog, share the link to it (in the comments below), and give at least three other participants’ comments on their blog.

I need another flat tire like I need a hole in the head. (Then again if that head hole would preclude one in my tire, I might have to give that trade serious thought…) https://cast-of-characters.blogspot.com/2018/09/slice-ycle-continued.html
