It's been a day or two since we did a Mo Willems book on the podcast (and you can believe I'm counting down the days until one of those Elephant & Piggie books turns 20). What absolutely kills me is that we did today's title in complete ignorance of the fact that it was recently adapted into an incredible looking stage production in D.C. with a Chicago-based theater company.... which just closed. Doggone it. This book is interesting for a number of reasons. First off, Mo Willems had already done a Pigeon book (square) and a Knuffle Bunny book (horizontal), but this marked his first vertical book. We discuss our future picture book Steampunk Monster, how Sam's got sass, baby Wild Things, and more.

I Really Like Slop by Mo Willems
Many educators understand the value of reading aloud to students, but may not have yet unlocked the full power of these tools as an intentional, consistent, and joyful instructional approach. In this episode, we welcome Molly Ness, author or the recent book, Read Alouds for All Learners: A Comprehensive Plan for Every Subject, Every Day, Grades PreK—8. Molly—a former classroom teacher herself, who also spent 16 years as a teacher educator—gives us an overview of the research on read-alouds, detailing the myriad benefits (linguistic, socioemotional, motivational, and physiological) they provide students. Molly also lays out strategies for effective read-alouds, instructions on how to properly plan and implement them, and specific examples of the pre-work process for texts like Knuffle Bunny by Mo Willems.Show notes:Book: “Read Alouds for All Learners: A Comprehensive Plan for Every Subject, Every Day, Grades PreK–8” by Molly Ness*Use promo code “AmplifyPodcast20” from Oct. 24, 2023–Dec. 15, 2023, for a 20% discount on the paperback version.

Those conversational turns are so essential in [a] read-aloud. It's a shared literacy experience around a text." —Molly Ness"What I don't think teachers understand, and I say this having been one of those teachers, is the intentionality that needs to happen in planning the read-aloud." —Molly Ness"When we add things like think-alouds and being explicit in our vocabulary, we are building [students'] metacognition and [their] abiliy to understand text." —Molly Ness"We all have those gaps in knowledge and life experiences, regardless of where we come from and regardless of our zip code and regardless of our personal or family situation." —Molly Ness

The life of a creative entrepreneur is one of gig work. I'm sure you've heard the phrase, “gig economy.” For workers in many industry, this gig economy is a totally new thing. In decades past, engineers and computer programmers used to always work as employees of a company. They didn't have to jump from project to project on their own. My grandfather worked for the same textile manufacturing company his entire working career. He even lived in a town built by and named after that company! But that has never been the case for creative entrepreneurs. Even Shakespeare had to continually be writing new plays, hoping that his next project would be as successful as the last. Paganini had to keep writing music and playing concerts in new places. Picasso had to keep painting more paintings. But no creative lands every gig every time. Sometimes, we don't get the gig, or the release flops, or no one buys. When Moby-Dick flopped upon its release, Herman Melville immediately stopped attempting to write big, ambitious books, and not long after, he eventually stopped writing forever. Melville's reaction to “not getting the gig” was to allow the rejection and disappointment to swallow him to the point that he left his creative industry. I don't want that for you. I want you to have a thriving, satisfying, delightful creative business and creative career for years to come. So today, we're going to talk about how to handle the rejection that is part and parcel of living and working as an artist. Let's figure out what to do when you don't get the gig. In this episode, you will learn: Why it's important to process your feelings of disappointment after a rejection. How to find joy in the process of auditioning or submitting yourself for consideration. What a few other prominent creatives have done when they faced the reality of not getting the gig. What action steps you can take to make sure that you're giving yourself the best chance of getting the next gig. How to adjust your work in the short term so that you can get the kind of work you want in the long term. In this episode, I mention that registration is now open for the summer 2023 session of my Taming the Muse Group Workshop. I discuss Giannis Antetokounmpo's answer during a press conference on April 26, 2023, and I mention Episode 8 of the Crafting Audiobooks podcast. I consider a recent interview with writing coach Dan Blank and author Janae Marks, and I refer to Mo Willems' appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. I also reference one previous episode of this podcast: 016: The Six Components of a Thriving Creative Business. A full transcript of this episode can be found here. Full transcripts of every episode will always be available at the Starving Artist No More Blog. Thank you for listening.

In this super-sized episode we show our appreciation for authors and the books they create. We first talk about several author talks we attended: Stacy Lee who wrote The Downstairs Girl; Tom Felton (aka Draco Malfoy) who wrote his memoir: Beyond the Wand; and Mo Willems children's author of Pigeon and Elephant and Piggie fame. We are also so excited to welcome to the show, in her media debut, Emily Waters! Emily is the newly published author of Honey in the Marrow from Ylva Publishing. In this month of November we are so thankful for authors and all the characters, worlds, and creativity they bring into the world so that we may read, share, and repeat.
This week I spoke to one of my good friends, Lindsay Brown. Not only did she have great suggestions of books and a certification we should all have, but she also brought up some great podcasts for nannies. Book recommendations: Mo Willems books, Giraffes Can't Dance, Jamie Lee Curtis books, Cali Music books, Bob Marley books, According to Humphrey books, She Persisted Class recommendation: CPR & First Aid Listen to The Nanny Endorsements each week wherever you get your podcasts! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thenannyendorsements/support

Today in mishmashes: We're sharing some of the tricks and treats we've discovered recently, featuring Claire's flower-wrapping upgrade, Erica's brunch cookout recipes, and what to wear when it's hot, hot, hot. Erica's rooftop brunch agenda included ordering donuts (from Doughnut Plant if you're in NYC), finding a reliable friend to be in charge of grilling sausages (or, um, sausage strips!), and whipping up two frittatas: the mustard-asparagus one from Cookie + Kate and the mushroom-ricotta one Julia Turshen's Now & Again cookbook. And for dinner, Erica's favorite canned cherry tomatoes from Mutti are great for many things, including her go-to summer tomato sauce c/o Alison Roman. Claire's revisiting this Mo Willems interview often, and on the diaper-bag front, she recommends Longchamp's Le Pliage (or any flat bag like it!). As we slip back into shorts, we like these knit guys from Kordal, a pleated linen pair from Alex Mill, grown-up cut-offs from Agolde, and these rolled jorts from Raey. Some options on our quest for a great summer dress include ones from Mille, Mirth, Sunspel, Organic by John Patrick, Kule, Falke, Loup Charmant, and Anaak. And on the topic of summer jeans, we like these from Agolde, and these from Roucha Pala. But also, these Jenni Kayne trousers! Finally, if you're looking for a dopamine hit, we highly recommend you search #sheldonshrimp to see the wonderful world of Sheldon Shrimp the Jellycat stuffed animal and his friends Herman Hermit, Crispin Crab (and, course, Bashful Bunny).

In this episode of Radically Loved, Rosie and Ian introduce the nine Enneagram personality types. Pages by pages, chapter by chapter — we write a story that aligns with our past memories and scars. As we brave through our life experiences, it frames a sense of who we are as people. We are fortunate if life seems to sail through smoothly, leaving us with a great understanding of who we are. But have you ever wondered — what if you're living the wrong story?
