How did we get here? The Disconnect
What authors have to say: “A good editor is there to make your book better and should be asking you questions.” -Sharon Creech
What students think:“Fourth graders say they think they’re bad writers if they
have to revise.” -Donalyn Miller
“What do I have to change? I already fixed some words. I’m done.” -Middle School Student
