It’s almost time for Teachers Write 2017! Our free online summer writing camp for teachers & librarians kicks off on Monday, July 10th here on my blog. Sign up here if you’d like to join us! If you’d like to know more about Teachers Write, you can learn all about it here.
And now it’s time to introduce our amazing guest author mentors for Summer 2017! These writers are all volunteering their time, so we ask that you support Teachers Write by purchasing guest authors’ books when you can and requesting them for your school and public libraries. Please spend a little time checking out these writers’ websites and books…
Kate Messner That’s me – I’m your Teachers Write hostess & will kick things off with the first mini-lesson on Monday, July 10th.
Gae Polisner Gae hosts Feedback Friday on her blog and is the most amazing writerly cheerleader you’ve ever met. Gae wrote these great books.
Jo Knowles Jo will kick off each week with her Monday Morning Warm Up. Here are some of Jo’s amazing books.
Additional guest authors will be stopping in throughout the summer to share strategies, wisdom, and inspiration. Check out their websites now and get ready to write with them starting next week!
Every time I look at this lineup, I get more excited about the summer to come. And it’s almost time to get writing!
For now, please check out the links above. Buy some books. Get to know your guest authors. Follow them on Twitter & find them on Facebook if you like to hang out in those places, too. We’ll be back Monday, July 10th to get started!
I am beyond excited!
Fabulous….thank you all for your generosity….no worries on book purchases from me. I make a personal and a library list each summer. I love being able to connect an author I “know” to a student I know face to face.

I am excited to begin this work with all of you!
What an exciting time! Thank you for hosting this Kate, Gae, and Jo! I am looking forward to writing for the first time this summer.
