When I talk about the writing process during author visits or writing workshops (for students and professionals), I address the popular question of where my writing ideas come from. 

Brainstorming is an important part of the writing process! Now I've turned that conversation into a printable for you to use as a writer or for teachers to share with their students. 

See my detailed blog post about how I brainstorm using the bubble method. You'll even see actual brainstorming for my book Scurry! The Truth About Spiders.

You can read more about my nonfiction writing inspiration, too!
