Good Teacher Quotes

I had the honor of being interviewed along with fabulous mother-writer-teacher Leanne Shirtliffe over at Ellie Ann Soderstrom’s site. How I get to hang out with two lovely ladies like that is beyond me, but I hope you’ll hop over to check out the wisdom we hath wrought.

The one and only Ellie Ann

Okay, so they provided the wisdom; I just cracked jokes mostly :-)

Ellie wanted me to dish on my day job, so the interview questions reveal the secrets of teaching. Or at least what objects I like to throw at students. Go ahead and check out the Good Teacher Interview and drop some thoughts in the comment section over there.

If you’re a Twitterite be sure to follow Ellie and Leanne.

Back into the writing cave I go. Making progress and very thankful to whichever one of you has been sliding those peanut butter and jelly sandwiches under the door* every few hours. I will emerge this Sunday with a full beard** and 40-50 pages in hand.

*Apparently my cave has a door.

**That’s a lie. I am incapable of this.

    A full beard might scare the younglings. Glad you have sustenance. Many blessings on your writerly pursuits.

      Tx Ellster. Going well. Should have something to show for the big push.

    The beard comment cracked me up. My dad never could grow facial hair either. He has a million and 1 jokes about it, but I’ll spare you the pain.

    May the force continue to be with you in the writing cave!

      Ha, now if I could only find 10,000 words in there too.

    I’m so excited! Anything that might bring about flinging PB&J into “the cave” and a full beard has got to be awesome!
    Hilarious interview! :-D
