Tracie Vaughn Zimmer Ramblings about the reading and writing life.
1. Spring!

 Popping in-between laundry and grading papers to say HAPPY SPRING everyone. I must tell you that as a teacher spring means so much to me! It is a reminder that I only have a bit of time left to convert all my students into readers and writers. It has been a really long winter here in so many ways but I am hopeful for new things and warmth and flip flops! Happy toe weather!

My writing is sporadic too but I THINK about writing all the time. Julia Durango and I still have virtual writing dates sometimes in the evening and this can make a difference. Knowing that I'll be forced to make progress sparks my brain somehow even when I'm busy with meaningless tasks like grocery shopping or driving to hockey practice. 

So, happy spring to everyone. May your ideas bloom like the crocus in the side yard!
