Short Play Pledging published in Rushing Thru the Dark

My one-act play Pledging has just been published in Rushing Thru the Dark by Choeofpleirn Press. The editor is Ruth J. Heflin.  This short play takes only ten minutes to perform.  Pledging is about two women friends who want to join sororities at Appleton College.  However, they face discrimination as a Jew and an African-American.  Pledging was performed at the Tritonysia Play Festival at Triton College (2017). You can purchase this issue of Rushing Thru the Dark in two ways:  Choeofpleirn Press is selling the ebook version at www.choeofpleirnpress.com , and the print version is available from Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BGKN34JR/ref=sr_1_1?crid=363WDN66IWAKV&keywords=rushing+thru+the+dark+autumn+2022&qid=1664294638&qu=eyJxc2MiOiIwLjMwIiwicXNhIjoiMC4wMCIsInFzcCI6IjAuMDAifQ%3D%3D&s=books&sprefix=rushing+thru+the+dark+autumn+2022%2Cstripbooks%2C99&sr=1-1. #drama #oneactplay #discrimination #sorority #college Sorority women photo from Bing

Read Across America includes How the Moon Regained Her Shape

On March 2, 2021, I participated in Read Across America by reading my award-winning fiction picture book for children about bullying and the solar system, How the Moon Regained Her Shape (Arbordale, 2006; 6th edition 2018). I read online for third- and fourth-grade students and teachers at Snow Elementary School in Newark, California. The students asked very good questions about my book and about being a writer. Thank you, Snow Elementary, for inviting me! https://snow.newarkunified.org/ #reading #readacrossamerica #bullying #solarsystem #picturebooks #HowtheMoonRegainedHerShapebook Cover of How the Moon Regained Her Shape by Janet Ruth Heller; artwork by Ben Hodson
