The Backstory: Safer Than Bungee Jumping

http://annhaywoodleal.blogspot.com/2014/07/safer-than-bungee-jumping.html

Wednesday, July 2, 2014. Safer Than Bungee Jumping. My cousin talked me into it on an unsuspecting Seattle summer evening a year ago. It truly did sound like a good idea - an adventure - safer than bungee jumping and way more enjoyable than that thing that everybody seems to be doing; the run through the muddy jungle where you get electrocuted and chased by zombies. See my new bike? She said it slyly as she so smoothly sunk her lawyerly hooks in. "You have one, right? And they'll all be there, too:.

The Backstory: One Letter at a Time

http://annhaywoodleal.blogspot.com/2015/02/one-letter-at-time.html

Monday, February 2, 2015. One Letter at a Time. Amira, just twelve years old and in the midst of civil war-torn Sudan, wants nothing more than to learn to read and write and to attend school. I fell in love with little Amira from Andrea Davis Pinkney's first word in her stunning new novel, THE RED PENCIL. I was reminded of how words and teachers have made me who I am as a person, as a third-generation teacher, and as a writer. I remember exactly what her watch looked like on her narrow wrist. But wha...

The Backstory: Your character did WHAT?

http://annhaywoodleal.blogspot.com/2014/11/your-character-did-what.html

Sunday, November 2, 2014. Your character did WHAT? Writers can harvest ideas at the drop of a pick axe, right? As soon as we sit down and touch our fingers to the computer keys, those brilliant ideas just spill out onto the page like giant raindrops . . . right? Yesterday, I gave a mini workshop on grabbing onto ideas and putting them into a story. A woman sat in front of me, listening intently, with a pained expression on her face. Do you write them down? Does your character have a problem? We tag-teame...

The Backstory: Everyone Loves a Challenge . . . Right?

Friday, January 2, 2015. Everyone Loves a Challenge . . . Right? It has been like hacking away at a freezer with a screwdriver." - Amy Poehler (on writing her book, YES PLEASE). Resolve is not only the perfect blog theme for the beginning of 2015, it is also the ideal theme for writing, especially in the verb sense of the word. It means to sort something out, to fix it, to straighten it and find a solution. It means to decide firmly on a course of action or to figure it all out. Labels: A FINDERS-KEEPERS...

All Kid Lit all the time. Monday, November 15, 2010. An update, baseball, and a WOW . . . I turn around for what seems like a moment, and suddenly nearly two months have gone by with no posts!

All Kid Lit all the time: New BRW (Book review Wednesday)!

http://elisabethaikins.blogspot.com/2012/01/new-brw-book-review-wednesday.html

All Kid Lit all the time. Wednesday, January 11, 2012. New BRW (Book review Wednesday)! BRW #2 - The Future of Us. By: Jay Asher and Carolyn Mackler. For this week's BRW, I decided to take a walk on the YA side of things. YA is generally where my kidlit taste tend toward since that's what I mostly write. However, this was the first novel (I'm sorry to say) I've read with the dual-author approach, but I'm glad to say it won't be the last. And Carolyn Mackler ( The Earth, My Butt, and other Big Round Things.

All Kid Lit all the time. Tuesday, May 8, 2012. Ode to a Literary Friend. Maurice Sendak passed away today at the age of 83. I never met Mr. Sendak, but like so many throughout the world, I thought of him not only as a literary genius but as a friend. Although he's known best for Where The Wild Things Are. My personal favorite is In The Night Kitchen. I'm in the milk and the milk's in me.I'm Mickey! I wanted to write.and write for children. Over the years I have read Mr. Sendak's books to my 3 childr...

All Kid Lit all the time. Wednesday, January 4, 2012. Now staring.Book Review Wednesdays! When I originally started this blog two years ago, I had planned on having one day's blog dedicated to reviewing kidlit books (both present and past - because there's just too many good books out there). Of course, it somehow got lost in my shuffle, but I have had the great fortune this school year to have some extra reading time. So introducing.BOOK REVIEW Wednesday! I'm so excited to be doing this!

All Kid Lit all the time. Sunday, January 1, 2012. Bye bye 2011.HELLO 2012! YesI realize it's been nearly six months since I've posted on here. This morning I sat with my new "goal's journal" and wrote down the goals I will work on accomplishing this year. One of those goals (as it was for 2011) is to post as least twice a week. We'll see how that works out. I wasn't sure how many of my goals I would complete, especially since I had some lofty ones (like getting both of my finished novels sold, HA! I hav...

All Kid Lit all the time. Sunday, September 26, 2010. Another weekend WOW . . . Well it's been another crazy week, so yet again I'm posting my WOW on the weekend. I actually was going to post it on my usual Friday, but when I got out to write about it . . . I realized I hadn't written down the word and then promptly forgot it. UGH! Anyway, after a quick drive past my school, I refreshed my memory. So without further ado the WOW for this week is . . . In fact the people at "The Free Dictionary" where I go...

http://elisabethaikins.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html

All Kid Lit all the time. Friday, January 22, 2010. Friday - WOW (Word of the week). One of the regular posts I envisioned for this blog was to do a day of WOW, aka - Word Of the Week. Now I'll admit this isn't a very original idea, but it came to me while I was going for walk one morning right after I started this endeavor. As I was passing by the elementary school my two younger kids attend (and where I work), I saw the WOW glaring out at me from the school marque . . . I kid you not, that was the word.
