The Creative Life a la Sara Zarr
I won't be able to afford to go to this summer's SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators) Conference in Los Angles. I don't think I can afford the time away or the money--unless in the meantime, I land a big grant or a hefty book deal. Ha.

Teaching writing means mentoring more than writing...and that's how I make a living. I also am lucky enough to love teaching most of the time. I would love it all the time if grading didn't take so much time...time that could be writing time. But that's okay. Summer approaches, and I intend to be a selfish writer with my time all summer.

I felt exactly the same way when I was still teaching, although I taught much younger kids. The fun, rewarding part of teaching was so bogged down by paperwork!
