Are you looking for ways to keep your students writing over their summer break? Introduce them to the “Writing Tips” page on my website, which features a series of thirteen short essays that I created to help young writers improve their craft. And if your classroom includes a few especially enthusiastic young authors, you can also point them to my two writing guides for young people: What’s Your Story? A Young Person’s Guide to Writing Fiction and Our Stories: A Fiction Workshop for Young Adults.
