Put 100 Marbles in a Bucket

Critical At Any Age
Topics: Probability, Science project

The coin flip is a basic example of probability that most people are familiar with. Heads or tails. Fifty-fifty. Even Steven. If you flip a fair coin many-many times, half the flips will come up heads.


What Practice Makes

View Planet Nancy
Topics: Health, Practice

If you do a daily mind-clearing activity, you have a practice. A yoga practice. A singing practice, a dance practice, a walking, drawing, meditation or jump-rope practice.

Mind Fixers

Recommended Reading
Topics: Mental health

Harrington sorts out out the many different levels of interpretation and judgement that can shape narratives about mental suffering and relief. She shows how difficult it is to turn subjectivity into science.

What You’re Good At

Write For You
Topics: Observation, Self

What kinds of things do people ask for your help with? What are you good at that isn’t good for you?

Starting With a Tree

Writing Prompts
Topics: Imagination, Memory, Stories

Consider trees. Their biology and mythology. Their leaves and needles, fruits and shade. All the things that can be made from them.

Nancy blogs weekly for the Latah Recovery Community Center, sharing writing ideas that support self-awareness and self-esteem.


 

Writing classes and workshops

I had been looking forward to the 2020 summer season of in-person  Write-For-You workshops at the Latah Recovery Community Center.  Alas.

 

Congratulations to last summer’s students who earned certificates in Fiction Writing, Project Management and Grant Writing.

 

Applause and thanks to those who dropped by the classes just for fun.

 

If you are in recovery and interesting in writing coaching, contact Nancy.


 

Let’s Talk About It

A program that supports reading and discussion in libraries throughout the state of Idaho. Free and open to all. Somehow? Again? At a later date?

 

We are all looking forward to the time when it will be possible to resume these lively book discussions.

 

I’ve served as a scholar for this program for I-don’t-know-how-many years. I have found every book, every library, every group of people to be interesting and stimulating. Every discussion brings new ideas and surprises.

 

I’m confident that this program will evolve so that it can continue to bring Idahoans together through books. We just don’t know how or when that will happen.  Yet.
