    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    It’s Day 30!It’s been a lot of fun writing every day, even when I didn’t feel like it / was out of ideas, which happened more than I’d like to admit.I don’t think I’ll continue at this pace. Summer is a perfect time to do it; I haven’t exactly been bored this summer, but I’ve had just enough time to squeeze in some writing here and there. The school year is a whole different animal.Still, I want to keep publishing, at least sometimes. Maybe keep Teaching Tuesday going. The Sunday Media Digests.
