Come on over to Storymagician.com and my brand new website!

I am super excited about my revamped website, www.marshadianearnold.com.  That's where you'll find my Storymagician blog now, right under "Blogs/Media".  You can always find my blog at www.storymagician.com too.


I've enjoyed connecting with students, librarians, teachers, readers, and other writers here.  Thanks for visiting.  


Now all things "Storymagician" will be in one spot, www.marshadianearnold.com.  See you there!

Thank you, Stillson Elementary Creative Writers, for skyping with me today!

Dear Stillson Elementary Creative Writers,


It was such fun meeting with you today through Skype.  I am so inspired that you are seriously pursuing your writing by meeting and talking and thinking and WRITING!  Say hooray for yourselves!


I wanted to share that my NEW website should be up by next Wednesday.  Check www.marshadianearnold.com then and you'll see a brand new, dynamic site.  Under the MEET MARSHA tab you can read a bit about my life and how I started writing.  There's also an ASK MARSHA section.  If you want to know more about where I get my ideas you can click my books under MAGICAL WRITINGS.  I share a bit about each book.


Remember to try to write a little every day, even if only for five minutes.  And remember to read the best books you can find, as well as write the best stories you can write.  Good writing has a rhythm, a flow.  When you read wonderful writing, it will get into your mind and your "bones" and it will help you become a better writer.


And just for you, here's an early draft of ROAR OF A SNORE.  If you read the book, you'll see there were LOTS of changes...for the better, I think.




Have fun writing wonderful stories!!  And thank you, Ms. Merconti, for making it all happen!
