Marching Through March With Mentor Texts

 

Join me in marching on with mentor texts through the month of March. It is a wonderful way to discover new mentor texts, gain insight and knowledge, and be inspired by many sharing their stories and mentor text suggestions.

Thank you to Lynne Marie, her staff at Rate Your Story and all the authors posting each day for this wonderful month of fun.

Kicking Off a New Writing Year

With the beginning of January and a new calendar year, also comes the start of a new 12 x 12 Picture Book Writing Challenge year, the goal during which is twelve new picture book rough drafts in twelve months. This particular year is full of hope and progress for me as I've upgraded my membership from silver to gold. Looking forward to a year of motivation, inspiration, persistence, production and interaction.

Happy New Year

As we ring in a new year, may we relish the good and let go of the bad from 2024 and look to 2025 with gratitude and joy. 

Wishing you all a very Happy New Year. May 2025 bring good health, well-being and productivity for you and yours.
