Yeeeeesss

[Dana Kramaroff @LitDanaK]

When I am asked how I get my students to LOVE to read, I tell them three things:
1. Every finished novel is celebrated!
2. No reading logs!
3. So much choice!
(Finished novels from my two 5th grade classes after 13 days of school!!) #proudteacher #believeinyourshelf

All really great stuff right here 👇👇

[Bethany Jarmul @BethanyJarmul]

Last year, I published 2 pieces of writing. This year, I've had 28 pieces accepted for publication. Here are the changes that I made to prioritize writing and submitting. (Caveat: these worked for me, doesn't mean they're for everyone.) 🧵

@MelissaRoske @snatetate Nice to meet you, Steven!

The idea of a second draft being longer than the first is new to me. (My first drafts are like carcasses; the “meat” gets added in subsequent drafts.) What’s your drafting process, writers? @chrislowauthor #amwriting #WritingCommmunity https://t.co/3ZiKhJZdwu
