Stacy Barnett Mozer

IMG_5449Stacy Barnett Mozer is a book blogger, elementary school teacher, and author.

Stacy started teaching in 1997. During her teacher training at NYU she was introduced to the writer’s workshop style of teaching writing and started her first writer’s notebook. She never expected that would lead her to write “actual books,” but every time she gave an assignment to her students, she would do it first. She used her own writing pieces as models in the classroom, enjoying writing in a way she had never remembered experiencing as a child.

Stacy writes The Sweet Spot middle-grade sports series for Spellbound River Press.
