ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
What if your story could reach far beyond your classroom? In this episode of LinkedUp, Jerri and Jamie sit down with education editor Jacquie Gardy to explore what it takes to turn an educator’s experiences, ideas, and passion into a book that can influence and inspire others.
Jacquie takes us behind the scenes of editing and publishing, sharing how editors help authors find their voice, shape their ideas, and bring stories worth telling to a wider audience. Because educators have more than lessons to share, they have experiences that can challenge thinking, inspire others, and add to the larger conversation about education. If you’ve ever thought, “I have something to say, but I’m not sure anyone needs to hear it,” this conversation might change your mind.
