I'm a teacher, writer, musician, father of three creative young men, and husband to a librarian. Cool, right? My teaching 'home' has long been the National Writing Project.
I blog (we still do that, right?) at https://dogtraxwrites.com/

Finger rubs off ink,
the words of the newspaper
fading, forgotten

I’m out, hiking on the last day of #writeout and in the woods is this sign - indicating a network of unmarked trails - you know where I’m heading …

I am always curious about people's draft lyric notebooks, so I took yours from your video (thanks for adding it in) and put it with mine (which is a visual mess to anyone else but me -- this is how I write songs, though) #WriteOut

Today's #ds106 #DailyCreate is a fun one for #writeout -- using a tree fractal creation site to make tree art. I went further and added some birds to my tree

Yesterday, I took all of our students outside for a #writeout for activity in which we counted all of the trees on our school property through tree mapping (after they made a guesstimate). As we were walking, one student turned to to me and said: I love write out. That inspired this #poem

Morning poem from one word prompt: endeavor

Do we endeavor
to entertain you with words
in three-line constraints?

#WriteOut A new trail for us led us to an overlook of the Connecticut River Valley on a beautiful Autumn day

I was walking the dog and saw this book in one of the Little Free Libraries in our neighborhood and thought: perfect for the start of #writeout I took it out and took it home.

Here, beneath the eaves,
safe from the threat of rainstorm,
we find some respite

A poetic response to a #clmooc friend's poem (in another space)

The first leaves, falling,
tumbling onto summer grass;
change starts slow, then fast
