An  essay I wrote about my Dad will  be included in an upcoming book, Bearing Up: Victory.Survival.Calamity. The selected essays will resonate with the themes of “making-do,” “bearing up,” and “overcoming adversity.” Stay tuned for release dates and purchase information.

May I Have Your Attention, Please?

NBCT, Teacher Ryk Stanton contacted me with his idea to use, May I Have Your Attention, Please? as part of the curriculum for his class. The students will read the play in class and discuss and then practice their writing skills by writing to me. They may ask any questions about the writing process and what inspires it or about the content of the play itself. I look forward to corresponding with the students and hope to be able to feature some of the questions and answers here …and even some photos if I’m lucky.
