This exchange in conversation about writing from student to author perspectives delves into the writing process from two different perspectives.

WHS senior Logan sits down with local author, Kelly Lidji, to discuss writing and you too, will gain a sense of familiarity with this talented author who will be at Festival of Words, December 2nd. Don't worry, despite Logan ending discussing his writing process, Segment 2 picks right back up with a conversation between author and writer where Logan left off.

WHS Senior Olivia had a chance to sit down and reflect on his educational experiences at Woodbridge School District.

From the recent event of Manga being removed, to a widespread misunderstanding of the word Comics to Graphic novels, ties to classic literature, what is reading and MORE, educator and author Tim Smyth and Woodbridge High student break down all things related to the idea of graphic reading. The Walter P.J. Gilefksi podcast studio brings this special podcast stemming from Banned Books Week and how students have opportunities to find their voice.

In preparation of the 2023 History Book Festival in Lewis Delaware, thanks to the coordination of the Lewes Book store Biblion and Author Traci Todd, Woodbridge High School students (Kelly, Aida, Chelsea, Brooke, Bryce, and Gabby) had a chance to sit down with Children's Nonfiction Editor/Author Traci N. Todd following her visit to Phills Wheatley Elementary School. Students found a range of topics to connect with Ms. Todd's own experiences as a writer. Traci N. Todd is a children’s book editor and writer whose work centers on Black culture and social justice.
