Since I was the age of the students I teach, I've been committed to writing and completing, submitting, and publishing my writing globally so that others can enjoy from be entertained by and learn from my writing. So I try to impart a sense of the joy and also importance and responsibility in sharing the written word, the self-discipline and structure and always remembering the reader. Mostly I try to take the edge or the fear out of writing and encourage each student to put the most into each project in order to get the most out of it and give the most back.
