Diane Flynn Keith is Back!

For over 20 years, Diane Flynn Keith lived and wrote about homeschooling. From her best-selling book, Carschooling, to her Homefires website, and her newsletters and talks, Diane gave and gave to our community. When she announced her retirement in 2013, we felt we were losing a valuable voice.

Well, Diane couldn't stay away. GHF's thrilled that she has come out of retirement with her new newsletter, "News & Resources with Awesome Sauce" and upcoming talks.

Diane graciously shared her story with us. You can read it below and on our website.
