Author Day at Marion Elementary

I'm so excited! This week a fourth grade teacher,  Ms. Tammy Washburn,  contacted me to present, "My Days with Nell" to students at Marion Elementary School! I will be visiting grades 2-6 on December 12, 2013. Ms. Washburn's fourth grade classroom will be visiting the Biltmore House on December 17, 2013, and this will be a wonderful opportunity to share my book with them and hopefully, it will peak their interest and excitement for their visit. I will be presenting the North Carolina Common Core Writing Process with the students and how I used this process in writing "My Days with Nell."  Then, we will have a question and answer time on all things Biltmore.  Visiting elementary schools is an extra bonus for me.  I adore sharing my love for Biltmore with the students.They will have the first opportunity to purchase "My Days with Nell" with the new cover of Nell, Lilly and Ellen Jorith gazing at Mt. Pisgah from the Loggia.  I can't wait for my day with Marion Elementary!  Thanks to Ms. Washburn for the invitation!!!
