Authors in Action
Many times writing needs to be heard for its full effect. See these writers perform their work and think about ways to perform your own work. For example:

• Check out a neighborhood coffee shop
• Host a poetry performance in your school library
• Videotape yourself at home

When you read your piece think about reading with emotion. Which parts will be soft? Which parts will be loud? What words should be emphasized?
