Write On!

This is a 60 minute classroom or library presentation that focuses on the creative process and includes readings from Catherine’s new book, Seeking Shelter, as well as interactive writing with students. Catherine will talk about how she got started, how she develops ideas, and how to structure a story. Through a cooperative learning activity, students will then work in a group to develop ideas and begin their own story. Suitable for grades 4-7.     

Read Aloud

Catherine is available for readings from her Young Adult novel, Seeking Shelter, or her short story, "The Ballot", published in Ronsdale’s YA Canadian anthology Beginnings: Stories of Canada’s Past. She will also speak about how she began writing and how she develops a story. 

Suitable for group or library presentations.
