What is the aim or goal of your writing: I'm interested in making a difference in the lives of my readers with stories that teach lessons. I've been lucky to work with a publisher who believes in producing books that make a difference in the world. Our Character Challenge Workshop challenges students to dig deep into their personal character and determine how they can become better citizens. Workshop topics are confidence, respect, and empathy and include two small-group activities. Contact Kris for more details.
