Why I Write

#NCTE #SOL19

Thanks…

 ~ to Susan for helping me draft this poem during a recent conversation – partners are good for adult writers too!

 ~ to a young reader in Ashland who reminded me that the true prize in facing a challenge is the fun you experience. He learned from Jabari Jumps that you only keep doing it if it is fun.

~ to the Slice of Life Community who always brings joy to my life even when the going gets rough.All of you are essential to why I write
