33 Mrs. Lord's Visit

Cynthia Lord was here!

I don't know about you, but her visit is always a highlight of my school year. I find her advice about writing to be priceless. And I love hearing the 'behind-the-scences' stories of her writing process.


Discussion Points:
a. What are your thoughts about Mrs. Lord's visit?
b. What part did you find most interesting?
c. Least interesting?
d. If one thing could have been different about our day with her, what you it be? How would you change her visit?

Let's write!


Here is a link to Mrs. Lord's on-line journal. I think her entry about visiting York is great!

  1. i thought that it was interesting to have a author come and talk to us about a book we just read.

    i thought the most interesting part was when she talked about how she pictured the characters and places that she based the places and characters on in the book , and seeing how i pictured them which i pictured most of them the same as she did.
    i don't know how i would have wanted her visit to be differnt i really liked every thing.

  2. It was awesome!! Having a published author come to our school and talk about her experience in writing picture books and novels.
    I liked how she answered my question up in the library and helped me with my writers block.
    THANK YOU!!! :):):):):)
