The best-selling author and award-winning radio host brings his message of creative writing and academic success to students and parents everywhere!
Hello! Many of you have enjoyed listening to me as part of The Dom and Jane Show on Mix 100 Radio in Denver. Thank you for all of the support!
The first volume in my award-winning Galahad book series, The Comet's Curse, is now officially in stores everywhere! The Comet's Curse has already won an international grand prize from Writer's Digest magazine, and an EVVY Award for Best Young Adult Book.
Lesson Plan Available for Educators: A multi-state teacher brain-trust has come up with this fantastic lesson plan for grades 5-9. It's a terrific way to get different departments working together on one big project that students love! And if you're interested, I can also visit your school as the project wraps up and talk with students about the book series, the writing process, why it's cool to be smart, and more. Contact me here to book an appearance.
Click here to read a report from the teacher who started it all. Her Rocket Kids '09 project was a huge success, and has paved the way for more schools to get in on the fun.
Beating the Summer Brain Drain: Every summer, kids and parents struggle with how to combat the 'brain drain' during the summer months. Here's a recent article I wrote for The Big Brain Club that deals with that issue head-on.
Online: Resistance was futile, so I'm now fully functional on Facebook. Add me as a friend and keep up with all things Dom -- Galahad, The Big Brain Club, Dom and Jane, and more.
One of my passions is working with kids to help overcome the peer pressure they feel to dumb down. It's why I created a non-profit foundation called The Big Brain Club. The web site not only contains articles and essays for teachers and parents regarding education and literacy, but there are fun monthly writing tips and exercises for kids. Make The Big Brain Club a part of your life, and share it with others.
