あらすじ・解説
Amy Parks is a professor of elementary education at Michigan State University and the author of four middle grade and young adult books. She writes stories about smart girls falling for feminist boys in quirky midwestern settings and likes using One Direction lyrics as the inspiration for entire novels. You can find her latest book, Averil Offline, and others at https://amynoelleparks.com/.
In this episode, Amy talks about why she decided to pursue her MFA during her sabbatical, and how she creates space for both her scholarly and creative work. Amy’s year-long sabbatical took place during COVID, and she shares how that shifted her plans and how she spent her time on sabbatical.
I hope Amy’s story will inspire you to think expansively about what could be possible for your sabbatical.
