After having taken off all of August, The Writer's Wing is back, looking forward to a full and fruitful school year.
We launched www.kidswrite4kids.com toward the end of the last school year and hope to see many new members as fall gets under way. Please check out our present featured writing by Zach. It's an ambitious, imaginative story he can be very, very proud of.
This fall www.kidswrite4kids.com is accepting block memberships from schools. This means that schools can sign up fifty or more of their students at a discount to help celebrate student writing. For more information about this, please email me (Steve Peters) at storymaker@aol.com.
In addition to co-teaching a course in storytelling at the University of Minnesota this semester, I will be visiting schools to do writing residencies.
Sept. 29-Oct. 3: Liberty Ridge Elementary School in Woodbury, MN
Oct. 6-10: Red Pine Elementary School in Eagan, MN
Oct. 20-24: Pearson Elementary School in Shakopee, MN
Nov. 3-7: Southview Elementary in Waconia, MN
Nov. 10-14: Oak Hill Elementary in St. Cloud, MN
Dec. 1-5: Southview in Waconia a second time
It is still possible to fit a couple more schools into the fall schedule, and winter/spring is now starting to fill up. The next couple of months are especially busy as I begin work on a book for young readers about Ford race cars and continue doing talks to parenting groups on making kids more enthusiastic readers and writers. For more information about these talks, please email me at storymaker@aol.com.
