Have you ever been so lost in a story that the rest of the world melts away?Today on the podcast we’re joined by author Tom Newkirk. Tom says that if we want students to develop a love of books and writing, we need to bring fiction back to our writing curriculum, and not just as an extra-curricular. In his new book, Writing Unbound: How Fiction Transforms Student Writers, Tom makes a case that writing fiction strengthens all writing.Through interviews with both students and teachers, Tom breaks the myths about teaching fiction writing and places the student's desire to write fiction at the center of his thinking. © Heinemann Publishing 2021See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
