Email: Freewrite poem

Freewrites are Wacky
Freewrites are Weird
Freewrites are funny
They’re worse than you feared

Freewrites are writing the stuff in your mind
When the timer rings then you might find
you’ve a poem ’bout pliers
a book about tops
You know you’ll have something when the timer stops!

I love when your kids send me their writing. How delightful is this? Thanks Sam for letting me share it with the world.

If you have a child who needs some writing encouragement, send me their work and I may share it here just like I did Sam’s. Could be a great way to connect the power of writing with the power of publishing.

    This was great Sam! Thanks so much for sharing your writing! I’m going to have to read this to my 10 and 8 year olds for inspiration. I’m sure they will enjoy it too!
