This year (2019) finds me with 50 years of teaching "under my belt." I have taught all levels from pre-K "(library lady" or "book lady"--volunteer) to juniors, seniors, and graduate students enrolled in my Advanced Writing class at the university where I have just completed 30 years. My first paying teaching job was junior high, and I spent 13 years with ages 12-13, the "difficult years." I had some of the "funnest" experiences with this age group. When I was no longer the "young, fun teacher," I taught in an elementary school setting before sixth graders went on to junior high, teaching language arts blocs, an assignment that was a "dream-fit" for me. After completing graduate school in my 40s, I went on to community college, then university teaching.
Just as teaching is "in my blood," so is a passion for reading, writing, libraries, and everything bookish.
This blog will be open to anyone who loves books, promotes literacy and wants to "come out and play."

I agree as long as you own the book.

Yes… not so good if it’s a library book:)). I have seen Matt Haig talk and enjoy his books – he is an interesting author with a really quirky take on the world.

Oh do! My favourite book of his so far is The Radleys which is about a vampire family desperately trying to blend into middle-class suburbia in the UK. It’s very funny and a little bit dark.

Without proper polishing you will not be able to produce high quality articles.
But there are millions of article directories out there, so how can you
know which ones determine on? Well the fact is writing articles. http://kosmonautika.info/node/1079/track
