Today we discussed this quote by Jane Yolen:
"Exercise the writing muscle every day, even if it is only a letter, notes, a title list, a character sketch, a journal entry. Writers are like dancers, like athletes. Without that exercise, the muscles seize up."

We also talked about how writers work hard to get better and set goals for their writing. What is your child's writing goal?
