SOME INSPIRATION
When I write, my mind’s not filled with visual imagery. It’s filled with language. Words. I seek words, I chase after them. When I write I’m trying to put the most beautiful words in the world down on paper. ~Cynthia Rylant
For me the pleasure of writing stories comes from inventing stories. ~Roald Dahl
All that I hope to say in books, all that I ever hope to say, is that I love the world. ~E.B. White
My Students are making poems this week and I wanted to share some of them with you. https://miyagi-sensei-teaching-journey.weebly.com/blog/my-students-poems
