Amy M. Pollack - Coming of Age Book Series by a Retired Teacher and Grandparent: The Adventures of Jelly Bean & The Further Adventures of Jelly Bean. This is episode 635 of Teaching Learning Leading K12, an audio podcast. Amy Meislin Pollack was a teacher for over four decades, raised three children, and loves to play with her seven grandchildren. From her own childhood to the classroom and as a parent and grandparent, she is perfectly positioned to pen her coming-of-age book series. The Adventures of Jelly Bean, followed by The Further Adventures of Jelly Bean, first came into being when the author's fourth-grade teacher used to ask her to get up in front of the class and tell the stories about this character she would make up as she went along.  Several years later she started writing these stories down and would work on them periodically in any free time she had during her teaching career and raising her three children.  Now retired from a 40-year career in teaching - spanning a wide range of subjects and grade levels - she has embarked on a lively writing career. The silver lining of the Covid pandemic for Pollack was that she was more or less forced, after approximately 60 years, to finish her Jelly Bean books. Her books are about a young girl whose life is always changing and how she adapts to these changes. She tries to work out relationships with her friends, her parents, her older brothers, her uncle. Her parents do not want her best friend, who is of mixed race, to visit. Another friend is anorexic. One brother drops out of school. A grandparent dies. Pollack earned a BA in English from Goucher College in Baltimore and received her Master's in English from University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education. She was certified as a secondary education and reading specialist for grades K-12 and earned a special education teaching degree from NYU, allowing her to teach disabled students.  For six years she was a professor of writing, and a teacher in the tutoring center at Montclair State University in NJ.  She lives in central New Jersey with her husband and their dog named Bunny.  For more information, please see her website, www.amypollack.com. About The Adventures of Jelly Bean: What if the start to your day was falling into the toilet, which caused you to miss your carpool, that in turn caused you to get to school late, that ultimately caused you to miss getting one of the decent parts in the upcoming Thanksgiving play? That is exactly what happens to fourth-grader Jelly. Bean on the day we first meet her. Things only go downhill from there and no one at home seems to have much time for her. Except Roger-Over, her beloved dog. About The Further Adventures of Jelly Bean: Jelly Bean in the continuation of her adventures as she seeks solutions to the challenges that confronted her in book 1. Michael, her oldest brother, has dropped out of school and joined the Marines, which usurps much of her parents' attention. Kylie, the new girl in school, faces a medical emergency. And Jelly Bean is still forbidden from going to her best friend's house. She has to decide how to deal with these dilemmas and more. Along the way she learns about love, death, pain, relationships, the difference between right and wrong and the value of friendship. See the world through the eyes of this forthright fourth grader as she discovers two truths about life - that it is always complicated, and always changing. Awesome conversation! Cool books!

Her latest is a romping, wild delight from start to finish. Killers of a Certain Age is the 60-something lady assassin book we didn't know we needed, but, oh, we needed it. I love this book." —Joshilyn Jackson, New York Times bestselling author “Deanna Raybourn's Killers of a Certain Age captures the reader from the get-go—and never lets go!

*According to Dr Cal Newport, the secret to high productivity is simply having three or four hours of uninterrupted, focused work every day, five days a week. *In this time, you can produce important work and still have plenty of time for family, hobbies, or just doing nothing. *Sounds simple? The key is deep work, a term coined by Newport to describe bouts of intense work, undistracted by social media updates or internet browsing. *With this focus, you can not only achieve a great deal, but also stretch your mind and enjoy the true satisfaction of a job well done. *Successful people do not spend all day doing this kind of work, but they make sure it's part of their daily routine. *While we may not all have the luxury of a “room of one's own”, like Virginia Woolf, we can learn how to carve out dedicated time and attention and cultivate a deep work ethic.

Poet's Corner is WestWords' monthly encounter with celebrated Australian poets, curated by David Ades. Each month a poet is invited to read and talk about their poetry on a theme of the poet's choice. Geoff Goodfellow has established a reputation for giving voice to a wide range of people who wouldn't normally be the subjects of poetry or prose. He left school at fifteen and began to write in 1982 at the age of thirty-three. He had worked for many years in semi-skilled occupations. Essentially, he is an auto-didact. In February of 2008 Geoff was diagnosed with cancer of the throat and told he had one to five years to live. Geoff continues to defy the odds. In 2011 he published Waltzing with Jack Dancer: a slow dance with cancer (Wakefield Press). His first collection of poetry No Collars No Cuffs was launched at Adelaide Writer's Week in 1986. It has been re-printed nine times. Ten books have followed, most going into multiple print runs. An eleventh book, his first book of short stories Out of Copley Street (Wakefield Press) will be launched at the Hawke Centre in Adelaide on October 29th by Professor Rick Sarre, Dean of Law at UniSA. Geoff has worked as a writer-in-residence in school, jails, youth detention centres, drug & alcohol rehabilitation units, building and construction sites, factories, mad-houses…as well as in universities in Australia and overseas. He has toured Canada, USA, Cuba, China, Europe and the UK, giving readings of his work as well as taking up residencies. In 1988 Geoff was awarded the Inaugural Carclew Fellowship at the Festival Awards for Literature, to assist the development of young South Australian writers. In 2002 his collection Poems for a Dead Father was short listed for the Age Book of the Year award. His poems have appeared in The Best Australian Poetry 2009 and The Best Australian Poems 2011, 2012, 2014 & 2015. Geoff grew up in the inner-northern suburbs of Adelaide but has lived most of his adult life close to the beach at Semaphore.

Acclaimed author Elliot Pearlman joins Mel Cranenburgh to discuss his latest novel, Maybe The Horse Will Talk, a searing but darkly funny look at the vicissitudes of life inside corporate capitalism in the era of the MeToo and Time’s Up movements. In this extended interview, he tells Mel about how his own experiences as a lawyer helped him to get inside the head of his main protagonist, Stephen Maserov, a former teacher and second-year lawyer whose life is spirally slowly out of control until he hatches a daring plan to keep both his career and his ethics on track.Elliot’s previous novel, Three Dollars, won The Age Book of the Year Award, the Betty Trask Award (UK), the Fellowship of Australian Writers' Book of the Year Award and was shortlisted for the John Llewellyn-Rhys/Mail On Sunday Book of the Year Award (UK) as well as for the Miles Franklin Literary Award. Elliot also co-wrote the screenplay for the film of Three Dollars, which received the Australian Film Critics' Circle Award for Best Adapted Screenplay as well as the A.F.I.

Luke Davies is a poet, novelist and screenwriter, known for ‘Lion,’ ‘Candy,' 'Life,' 'Beautiful Boy,' and now 'Catch-22.' His books have won many awards, including the inaugural Prime Minister's Literary Award for Poetry for his volume Interferon Psalms, and the Age Book of the Year prize for his volume Totem. A fan of 'Catch-22' from an early age, it was Davies’ original idea to turn the story into a series. Finding a way through the craziness of the novel was the first challenge. Joseph Heller’s story takes place during World War II, specifically from 1942 to 1944. It follows the life of Captain John Yossarian, a U.S. Army Air Forces B-25 bombardier. Most of the events in the book occur while the fictional 256th Squadron is based on the island of Pianosa, in the Mediterranean Sea, west of Italy. The novel looks into the experiences of Yossarian and the other airmen in the camp, who attempt to maintain their sanity while fulfilling their service requirements so that they may return home. In this exclusive interview, Davies discusses removing the clutter to adapt the story for Hulu, writing emotional beats for actors, the psychology of character, taking the audience on an emotional journey, why your treatments should be engaging, and the equal importance of discipline and rest as a writer. If you haven’t seen 'Catch-22,' there are some potential spoilers in this interview. There’s also a print version of this interview on Creative Screenwriting’s website.
