Rock Your Writing Instruction

IT’S OFFICIAL! 🎉

Rock Your Writing Instruction: Transforming Reluctant Writers into Rockstar Writers is HERE and officially available for purchase!

After 26 years in the classroom, years of creating writing resources, training teachers, and helping students discover that they really can write, I poured what I’ve learned into this book.

And now I get to share it with YOU. 💜

Most importantly, this isn’t about adding one more thing to your plate. It’s about giving you a clear path so you can walk into writing instruction thinking: “YES. I know exactly what to teach next.”

WHY I WROTE THIS BOOK:

Teaching writing doesn’t have to feel overwhelming. You don’t have to throw a prompt at students and hope for the best. And your students shouldn’t have to stare at a blank page wondering… “What do I write?”

Strong writers are built step by step. They need explicit instruction, modeling, practice, encouragement, and a writing process they can actually understand and use. That’s exactly what Rock Your Writing Instruction is designed to help you provide.
