Fryeman's Getaway

I just got back from my trip to the Eastern Sierra where my good buddy Steve and I have spent time every summer for the last 13 years.  In the early years it was all about fishing.  We'd get up before sunrise and be on the river (or in it) by the time there was a mere hint of light.  Now we get up late, go to Starbucks in Mammoth, fish when we get around to it (we still catch just as many fish), go to a movie, take a hike, and have campfire at night.  And this is when we break out whatever writing we've been working on and read aloud to each other.  Steve, who has sold tons of short fiction to literary journals, read his latest, and I shared the first two chapters of my YA novel entitled *Blah Blah, about  15 year old *Blankity Blankity.

So our trips have changed over the years, becoming more literary, and I have to say, more fun.  Greg 

 

*Blah Blah and Blankity Blankity are code, lest someone steal my ideas.

What a great presentation! Many visuals brought the "talk" to life. The students loved the spooky laughter contest and to be able to play a part from the book. Greg Trine really relates to kids!
