For Dr. Seuss's Birthday on Monday, March 2nd, I'll be presenting a mini-writing workshop to about 50 middle grade students in New Jersey. I was asked to participate in this Read Across America event, and feel honored to have this opportunity. Still...it's my first time and of course I'm nervous. I'm usually a pretty decent public speaker, but this is different.
I have lots of interactive exercises, lots of notes, etc. They also (at least according to their teacher ;) want me to read from my published short stories and even from my yet-to-be-published WIP YA novel. Yikes.
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome...
:)
