This year marks my fiftieth year in AAUW (American Association of University Women). The Alvin chapter was begun in 1947, and as a new, green teacher to Alvin Independent School District, I joined in 1968.
In the 80's we began a book group to share our love of reading, books,and fellowship with other women and girls who loved the same. We resurrected the group on-line in September of 2015. Eventually Powerful Women Readers folded as an on-line book club, but I kept the title and turned it into a blog. (See "Introduction,"first blog). This is my first experience at blogging or publishing anything and is becomes more fun with each blog posted.
I have just completed 30 years of teaching as an adjunct at The University of Houston Clear Lake. This is after three years at Alvin Community College and an almost-twenty year career as a classroom teacher with Alvin Independent School District, adding up to a total of teaching 50 years in all. Reading and writing are "in my blood" just like teaching is. I hope you enjoy the blog.

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
