Slice of Life Challenge

Please join the challenge over at Two Writing Teachers!

On Saturday I had the privilege of listening to Penny Kittle talk about writing. She said, "Fifteen minutes a day and you have a writing life"...that was passed onto her by her mentor Donald Graves. This month I've lived that...at least fifteen minutes everyday and I've written a blog post. It's changed me.

My writer's eyes

notice everything

Always looking for things to write-

My mind looks for connections

The act of writing everyday has 

changed the synapses 

in my brain...

created new pathways

My writing

I've created...

a month filled with thoughts,

musings, questions, declarations

about life, dogs, education

I've discovered friends

writers

teachers

who support, challenge,

guide, & inspire me as a 

teacher

writer

My writer's eyes

continue to search

Always looking for things to write-

I'm so sad to see March end. 

Incredibly grateful to everyone who's read & commented.

Inspired to continue writing & blogging. 

Relieved that we still have Tuesdays.

Happy to be ending with writing friends I didn't have before!

Thank you to everyone!
